Race Entry - Via a Rotary Bonded Athlete place

You can enter the 2008 UK Ironman 70.3 Triathlon via Rotary here on-line. Completion of the entry formalities requires the following:

1. Provision of a guarantee of your fund-raising commitment that you will raise a minimum of your pledged sum for the agreed charities.(Either £1000 or £2000 according to your selection options).

2. Payment of the Commitment Bond. (Note: You are not required to pay race fees to the Ironman UK office.)

3. Full and correct completion of all mandatory fields in the on-line entry forms.

4. Your agreement to carry sponsorship for the Rotary UK Ironman 70.3 Triathlon nominated charities, or selection of your approved charity cause.

Note: If you have nominated your own preferred charity, funds raised will be split between your chosen charity and the Rotary UK Ironman 70.3 Triathlon nominated charities in the ratio 50% / 50%

5. When we have received your completed entry form and when we have received payment of your Commitment Bond you will receive acknowledgement of acceptance to a Rotary slot.

6. We will issue you with a unique reference code. (Note: this is not the reference issued when your payment via Worldpay is acknowledged).

   No

 I wish to apply for a Rotary Guaranteed Entry Place in return for my pledge to raise and pass to Rotary a minimum of £1000 or £2000.

I understand that to obtain a Guaranteed place I must provide a commitment bond of £150 which is fully refundable when I have completed the race and/or my pledged target is submitted to the Rotary Charity fund. 
The commitment bond as with all monies raised will be held in an account that has been established solely to hold charitable funds raised in connection with the Ironman UK race and any ancillary fund raising events. The account is under the control of the Rotary Club of Sherborne. The club holds charitable status - Registered charity number 253064  The Rotary Club of Sherborne Benevolent Fund.

Note:
RETURN OF COMMITMENT BONDS & LIABILITY FOR COSTS OF ENTRY AND RACEWEAR.
Should you Withdraw from the race the following rules apply in respect to the return of the commitment bond.
1.a. If the withdrawal occurs as a result of an injury or illness causing permanent disability the Bond will be repaid in full.
1.b. If withdrawal occurs because of the death of a competitor the Bond will be repaid in full to the executors of your estate.
2.a. If the terms and conditions of entry to the race specify a date (hereafter referred to as the date) after which normal race fees become non-returnable but up to which they are returnable less an administration fee, the same date and rules will apply in relation to commitment bonds.
Withdrawal from the Triathlon notified to us up to "The Date" will trigger the return of the commitment bond less the administration fee as specified by amount on the official race site. For this to apply you must also notify the race office of your withdrawal. If you fail to do so by "the date" no part of the commitment bond can be returned as we will become liable to pay in full the race entry fee. If race wear has been issued by us for your personal use you will be invoiced for the full cost of this race wear less any balance remaining of the commitment bond after deduction of any administration fee. This is conditional upon you also having notified the race office in accordance with their terms and conditions.
2.b.Subsequent to "The Date" or if no date is specified: should you have been issued with race wear for your personal use you will be invoiced for the full cost of any racewear that has been provided to you and for the Entry Fee that will have been paid for your place.
(I) If no funds have been received into the charity fund then no part of the commitment bond will be returned or credited against any liabilities you may have with us.
(II) IIf non-returnable donations have been received into the charity fund the sums received will be taken into account in computing the amount of the commitment bond to be returned or the sum that may be due to reimburse the Charity funds for expenditure incurred in providing any race wear,  entry fee or other goods. The calculation of any sum to be returned or of any sum that may be due will  be undertaken by either the Rotary Management team or the Rotary Charities Manager for the Event.
3. Notification of withdrawal MUST be provided in writing and state the reason, by email or otherwise and received by us prior to "The Date" should that apply.
4. The return of commitment bonds to Athletes at a UK address will be by cheque or exceptionally by bank transfer, to athletes outside the UK it will be by individual arrangement
