For early bird pricing, all cheques must be received within 3 weeks of registration date.
2. Your valid email address.
3. When you are ready to create your team online - this can be done upon registration or anytime afterwards - if you're a new team captain, you will need each team member's valid email address. 
4. NEW FEATURE! Under “MY CREW”, team captains will be able to invite their past members as long as they were their team captain.  Click on the “Invite Crew from Past Events” to view and select this year’s crew roster list.

MLDB Reward Program

MLDB Reward Program

MLDB Reward Program is a new program that rewards mixed teams who participate in multiple GWN Events by offering teams a discounted rate. The more MLDB Events you participate in, the more you'll save on each event registration.

How it Works

Register your mixed team for a second MLDB event and save $100 on that event's registration fee. Register your mixed team for a third MLDB event and save $300 on the third event's registration fee. The more events you participate in, the more savings will stack up. You could save up to $1000!

Please contact GWN, before registering your team. 

*Discounted rates applicable to mixed team registrations only

Note on Disney Sports Waivers:

Team Captains:  
Disney Sports requires that each participant complete and sign a Disney Sports Waiver.  Please ensure that each crew member on your team roster submits a signed waiver before participating in your first practice or race. Paper waivers can be brought to your first practice at the event site or on race day.

Note on GWN Waivers:

Team Captains: 
Through the crew management system, you can invite (or cancel) your team members, which upon accepting the invite, they will register themselves and sign the waiver electronically. 

Participants: 
Upon accepting the invite from your team captain to join, you will be brought to the GWN website to create an account.  You will be able to review the terms, place a check mark in the box, which will then sign the waiver electronically, which in turn eliminates all paper waivers!

Note on Participants under 18:
Team Captains:
Please still add them to your team online, as this does act as your roster list. You can download the waiver (which is on your crew management page), print off copies and have them filled out and signed by their guardians.  Please mail, fax, or scan & email the waiver to the GWN Office.  The GWN team will cross-reference them with your team roster list, and GWN will sign the waiver (electronically) on their behalf.

Note on family members sharing an email address:
Team Captains:
Please register one of them with the one email address they have.  For the other family member(s), please use the member's phone number(s) in conjunction with our domain name: e.g. 4165551212@gwndragonboat.com. (We will receive the member's invitation).  This way, the participant’s name will be in the system as this also acts as your team's roster list. 

Please have the family member(s) send in their waiver to the GWN Office via mail, fax or scan & email.  GWN will then electronically sign the waiver on their behalf and accept membership on the team.
