⚠️ MANDATORY — TRIATHLON BC MEMBERSHIP & RACE-DAY INSURANCE

ALL ATHLETES MUST HAVE A VALID 2027 ANNUAL TRIATHLON MEMBERSHIP OR PURCHASE A TRIATHLON BC ONE-DAY EVENT MEMBERSHIP TO PARTICIPATE.

This requirement applies to every individual participant, including Standard, Sprint, Tri It, and relay team athletes.

The Vancouver Triathlon is sanctioned by Triathlon BC, and membership verification is mandatory before an athlete is permitted to race.

✅ Option 1 — I Have an Annual Triathlon Membership

If you hold a valid 2027 annual membership with Triathlon BC or another recognized provincial triathlon association (such as Triathlon Alberta or Triathlon Saskatchewan):

• Enter your 2027 annual membership number during registration.

• Ensure your membership is active and valid on September 6, 2027.

• Be prepared to provide proof of membership if requested.

• A separate Triathlon BC one-day membership is not required if your annual membership is accepted and verified.

Triathlon BC members: Check your membership number

✅ Option 2 — I Do Not Have an Annual Membership

You MUST purchase a Triathlon BC One-Day Event Membership.

• This is mandatory for all athletes without an accepted annual membership.

• The one-day membership is separate from your Vancouver Triathlon registration fee.

• Your membership must be purchased and confirmed before race package pickup.

⚠️ Membership Verification — Important!

MultiSportsCanada will verify annual membership numbers and one-day membership purchases before race day.

If your membership cannot be verified, you will be required to either:

1. Provide proof of a current, valid annual provincial triathlon membership; or

2. Purchase a Triathlon BC One-Day Event Membership before receiving your race package.

NO VALID MEMBERSHIP = NO RACE PACKAGE = NO RACING.

Athletes are responsible for ensuring their membership information is accurate, current, and accepted for the event.

NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Most event costs (staff, marketing, permits, shirts, medals, insurance, etc.) are incurred before race day. Refunds would place the event in a financial deficit. By registering, you acknowledge that if you cannot attend, or if the event is cancelled, you are not entitled to a refund unless otherwise stated.

All entries are non-refundable, non-transferable, and non-deferrable unless processed through the official registration system. Sale or transfer of bib numbers is strictly prohibited.

Participants unable to compete due to injury or illness are not eligible for refunds or deferrals.

If the event is cancelled within six (6) weeks of race day for COVID-19 or other reasons, a 75% deferral credit toward the 2026 event will be issued.

Air Quality & Wildfire Protocol

Air quality is monitored using the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI).
If conditions reach AQHI 7 or higher, organizers may delay, shorten, or cancel the event.
No refunds will be issued under these circumstances; safety will guide all decisions.

Force Majeure

Uncontrollable events such as wildfire, weather, wildlife, or government restrictions may affect race operations.
If the event must be modified or shortened, it will be deemed complete once any distance is held.
If fully cancelled prior to race day, a credit of up to 30% of the paid entry may be offered toward the 2027 event.
Charity donations, processing fees, and upgrades are non-refundable.
