Team Registration Information  

 

In 2008, the All Schools Championships will be incorporated into the Pacific School Games with competitors attending as part of their State/Territory team. Track & Field teams are being organised jointly by the State School Sports Associations and the Athletics Australia member bodies in each State.

 

Please note, individual entries will not be accepted for the 2008 PSG.  All competitors must attend as a member of their State/Territory/Country team.

 

All registered competitors and team officials will have to collect their accreditation tags at the 2008 PSG Registration and Accreditation Centre at the indoor arena of the National Hockey Centre from 28 November 2008.

Competitor Levy

 

Each competitor in the 2008 PSG will be required to pay a competitor levy of AUS$150 excluding GST.  Australian State and Territory competitors will need to pay AUS$165 to cover GST. Under a ruling from the Australian Taxation Office, international competitors are exempt from GST on this levy.

The competitor levy must be paid before the Opening Ceremony and the commencement of competition on 30 November 2008.  Teams who have not paid the competitor levy for all competitors will not be permitted to participate in the 2008 PSG ceremonies and sporting competitions until the fee is paid.

Following the close of entries, all teams will be invoiced for the full amount of competitor levies for the number of competitors they have entered for the 2008 PSG. 

These will be payable before 30 November 2008 via bank cheque or EFT.  Details of payment procedures will be provided directly to the organisation responsible for management of participating teams.
