Registrations for the British Sports Championship 2021

Registration for the British Sports Championship, Gemona, Italy will be processed as follows:

- All pilots may register from 26th December at 18:00 UTC (19:00 in mainland Europe)
- BHPA members with a British Sporting Licence will be offered places immediately*
- Other nationalities will receive payment offers after **7th January

*Section 7 rules dictate only a maximum of 75 places can be offered to Brits at the outset. We will therefore offer the first 70 pilots that registered, in the first instance, according to the order they were put top the waiting list. A further 5 places will be offered by Wildcard allocation.

**Delayed from the original dates to top technical reasons of administration

Your place at the competition is not confirmed until we have received your payment. The Pilot Lists show the current status of your registration.

Once the competition is full, pilots will be added to a waiting list and then if a place becomes available it will be offered to the next highest ranked pilot on the list. The pilot will receive an email from us inviting them to pay their entry fee and will have 1 week to do so before the place is offered to the next highest ranked pilot on the list.

PAYPAL
Fees and dates will be strictly adhered to. Payments can be made on our website via PayPal with a Credit Card, Debit Card, or using your own PayPal account. PayPal uses data encryption for the protection of your card details. The pilot entry fee includes the fee charged by PayPal for administering your online payment. If you wish to pay for more than one person’s entry fee on-line you must name each pilot in the Paypal notes box.

BANK TRANSFER
You may pay by bank transfer, however the payment may take some time to arrive. If the event is full prior to receiving your payment then your payment will be refunded and your place will not be secure. We therefore recommend Paypal if your bank does not offer instant payments.

We are looking to offer Euro payments but this is not yet finalised and so is not immediately available

CASH
If you are offered a place at a competition venue, at the start of the competition, then you must pay your pilot entry fee in cash, in the local currency. This is the only time cash will be accepted as payment for your entry.

The pilot entry fee for the competition is set according to the real cost of organizing and hosting the competition. The competitions panel aim to operate as a non profit organisation.
