FAQ

As you ask them, I'll post them here...

If the parents are at the event, can they bring their children home on the Sunday? You can, but we'd prefer that you didn't. We've found that the journey home is a chance for the teams to unwind, chat about their weekend and just finish off the entire experience together. It would be great if you could take their kit home though :-)

I've had a couple of questions relating to food and looking through the handout I couldn't see the info, so to clarify...

  • You require three packed lunches, for Friday, Saturday and Sunday lunch.
  • We will provide dinner on Friday night and breakfast on Saturday morning, so you don't need to bring anything for these meals.
  • You need your normal hot meals for Saturday night and Sunday morning.
