Below you will find information for UCI Teams, National Federations and individual athletes on how to enter.

Key dates for entry ranking, online registration & entry list release here.

ALL UCI TEAMS

• UCI Teams must register all athletes via UCI Reg Online, with the individual login provided by the UCI.  
• Each team also has a WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series team account where team managers can manage/edit their athletes profiles and race entries for prepayment (Excluding Elite Teams who do not pay for race entries).

NATIONAL FEDERATIONS

• National Federations must register all athletes via UCI Reg Online with an individual login provided by the UCI. This includes individual privateer athletes who register directly with the National Federation and athletes competing for the National Federation
• National Federations are required to inform athletes who are racing that they must create a WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series account - please note, if athletes have already raced this season then an account will have been created on their behalf and they will need to update their email address in order to login and access their profile - this can be done by emailing sportsservices@eso-sports.com

INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES

• All individuals must register their race entries with their National Federation (the National Federation would then follow the above steps) 
• Individual athletes who meet the minimum requirements as established in the Rules and Regulations and are confident on eligibility can pre-enter for each relevant event. This can be done in advance of the above step. Once the UCI have confirmed the entry is eligible, individuals will then be able to pay for their entry fee in advance of athlete confirmation. This will allow for a speedier process at athlete confirmation, where athletes can head straight to number collection

Race registration open and close windows can be found HERE. Please ensure you register before the deadline, after the deadline has passed, a Team or National Federation will face a €300 late registration fee to the UCI. 

Please note that athletes who pay in advance will be eligible for a refund if they then have to cancel their entry up until the day prior to the first athlete confirmation.
