• There are significant changes to eligibility requirements and processes that have come into effect, please ensure you have a clear and accurate understanding of how this may affect your school team. 

• All exemption or dispensation requests need to be completed 10 days prior to our entries closing on the Monday 16th February

• Click on the link to review: School Sport New Zealand Eligibility & Regulations (video content to support application completion)

• School Sport NZ Team Roster template must be completed for all teams. This form will be available to schools via the SSNZ website by end of January and includes principal sign-off for eligibility and media opt-out requirements. A completed and signed Team Roster is part of the registration process and must be submitted to VNZ prior to participation. Students will not be permitted to compete without a fully completed and approved roster.

• If a school is required to seek an eligibility exemption, this process must be completed directly with School Sport NZ, who may contact VNZ to verify details. School Sport NZ will provide VNZ with an official letter of approval or decline alongside the Team Roster, and this documentation must be received before the 'student' can participate.
