Minimum number of entrants required to form a school team is 3.  Maximum guaranteed entry per school team is 12.  Further entries may be accepted as numbers permit, in order of receipt.  
If a school team has only 3 racers, the team must ski in the age group of the oldest member of the team. If a school team comprises 4 skiers with 2 in each age group, the team manager must state in advance which of the younger category skiers will “ski up” to form a valid secondary school team. If a school entry comprises more than 4 skiers, the racers must compete in the correct age group.”Singles” will only be accepted if they are SASA members. Where as school has entered a team of 3 or more racers, but there is only 1 racer in a particular age group, this does not constitute a “single” entry.
The event will comprise of 3 timed slalom runs, the fastest of which will count. The aggregate of the fastest times achieved by 3 separate racers will count as the team time. Primary school teams will compete through stubbies, secondary school teams will compete through full gates.
