How To Manage Your Relay Team

Relay Teams Overview

  • There are two types of relay teams: 2-Person Relay Teams and 3-5 Person Relay Teams.
  • Registration is first-come, first served.
  • You don’t need to know everyone on your team to register your team. Your team members register once you have purchased a team.
  • 3-5 person teams with fewer than 5 runners are accepted. Some runner(s) will need to run multiple legs exchanging at VCM-designated exchange zones.
  • No need to let us know who is running which leg – we don’t track this information.
  • All registration, team management and changes go through RunSignup.com (see below).

Directions

Confirmation Emails

Within a few minutes after registering your team you will receive two e-mails from RunSignup.com. If you registered a team, but have not received a confirmation e-mail we recommend looking in your junk mailbox. Save these emails and remember your RunSignup.com username and password. You will need them later.

The first email confirms your registration with lots of details about the event. Sender and subject line will look like (sample shown below):

The second e-mail confirms creation of your relay team. Sender is the same as above, but subject line will read ‘Relay Team Created for The M&T Bank Vermont City Marathon & Relay.’ This e-mail confirmation includes links to your team page and to invite team members to join your team. Either link (circled in red below) will take you to your team page where you can manage your team. Sample e-mail below:

Managing your Relay Team through your Team Page

A list of things you can do on your Team Page

  • Update Team Name– Group Details Section, then click on Update Information. If you sell your team this is one way the new owner can personalize the team.
  • Add Team Captain(s) – Race Group Team Captains Section, then click on Add Team Captain and follow the prompts. The person you want to add as a Team Captain will first need to join the team as a Team Member. Once they are a Team Member they can be added as a Team Captain.
  • Remove Team Captain(s) – Race Group Team Captains Section, then click on the X next to the Team Captain you want to remove.
  • Remove Team Members – Group Members Section, then click on the X to the far right of the team member you want to remove.
  • Invite Team Members – Join & Share Section,  share the Registration URL or click the ‘Invite Friends’ button.
