Team Registration Instructions
The registration fees are priced per team, however, you will need to sign up as an individual.
The first person to register should sign up as the Team Captain and will be asked to pay the full amount ($158) for the team. They will also be prompted to create a Team at the bottom of the page, with and optional password that team members can use to join the team (this prevents anyone without the password from being able to join your team).
The 2nd and 3rd members of the team should sign up as Team Members and will not have to pay anything. They will be prompted to join a team at the bottom of the page. If your Team Captain has set up a password they will be required to enter it here.
You may have one person sign up all 3 members, or each member can sign themselves up.
Vincovis Strength and Support
Vincovis Strength and Support delivers a group functional fitness program for veterans and first responders living with operational stress injuries. The camaraderie and intensity at functional fitness gyms is unparalleled, and are a natural fit for those accustomed to training with fellow service members who serve their country and community. By building research and program evaluation into the Vincovis program from day one, our goal is to provide an evidence-based adjunctive therapy for those living with operational stress injuries.
Through personal donations, we are proud to be able to fund one-on-one personal training to our members before they transition to the group classes. This way, our trained coaching staff can ensure they are both physically and mentally prepared to start this program.
To date, we have 5 members enrolled in the program at Biometrics Strength and Support in Fredericton, New Brunswick. With the proceeds from this event, we hope to fund an additional 5 more through their personal training sessions.
