The Sydney 10 is a fantastic opportunity for non-registered athletes to participate in ANSW products, but ANSW are cognisant to ensure that the NSW Championship component of the event is promoted and recognised appropriately.

As such, and after an extensive review, ANSW will manage two portals. ANSW members will register through RevSport (Here), which will assign a discount (close to 50%), without the need to receive a discount code, as well as ensure that your membership is validated in an attempt to quickly recognise and present the State Championship medallists.

Non-members will enter through the race roster link (Here) given they are not members of ANSW. After the registration, the experience will be the same regardless of what entry method used, with the added benefit for ANSW members of eligibility in a State Championships.

More information on becoming an ANSW member can be found on our website here.
