Insurance & Risk Statement

The World Ocean Series is an independent event and does not provide WorkCover or equivalent athlete coverage. We carry a limited liability insurance policy, but all athletes enter and compete entirely at their own risk.

We take every reasonable step to manage hazards and deliver the safest possible event; however, it is ultimately the responsibility of each athlete — or their parent/guardian — to ensure they are capable, prepared, and safe in the conditions they choose to race in.

This is an active, high-risk sport, and we strongly encourage all athletes to hold private health insurance.

If you require clarification regarding an incident or our coverage, please contact support@worldoceanseries.com.

Prize Money Claims

All athletes who have placed and wish to claim prize money are required to complete the designated prize money claim form linked below. Prize pools for each event can be found in the official entry circular. Prize money for team events will be paid directly to the participating club, and it is the club’s responsibility to distribute funds to team members accordingly. All prize money claims must be submitted no later than 30th May 2026. Please ensure all details submitted are accurate to avoid delays in processing.

Refund Policy

Refunds for World Ocean Series event entries will only be issued when a valid medical certificate is provided as evidence of illness or injury. All refund requests must be submitted no later than 24 hours prior to the event commencement. A $10 administration fee per individual entry will be deducted from any approved refund (e.g., a refund request for four entrants will incur a $40 deduction). Athletes who do not attend the event without prior approval are considered no-shows and are not eligible for a refund. If a participant is unable to compete and does not meet the medical refund requirements, they may transfer their entry to another eligible competitor, subject to organiser approval. Please allow up to 10 business days for refund processing.
