Terms and Conditions and Participation Declaration – Zayed Charity Race 2026

• Organizer: The Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Supreme Committee, the Abu Dhabi Sports Council, and their partners, sponsors, contractors and volunteers, each of whom benefits from these Terms.

• Registration: Online through the official website, according to the categories and distances set by the Organizer. Egyptians register with their National ID, foreigners with a valid passport, and persons with motor disabilities only, in accordance with the conditions of the organizing committee, with their National ID and Integrated Services Card (wheelchair category only; registration of persons with intellectual disabilities is not permitted, in accordance with the Organizer's technical standards). Registration is personal and may not be transferred or sold, and no single National ID or passport may be used for more than one participant.

• Fees: EGP 350 for Egyptians and USD 40 for non-Egyptians, inclusive of taxes. Non-Egyptians bear currency exchange differences and bank commissions. The fee is payment for the participation service and is not a donation conditional on any particular entity.

• Non-refundability: Fees are non-refundable in the event of non-attendance, withdrawal, incorrect data, breach of these Terms, failure to collect race materials on time, or suspension of the race for reasons beyond the Organizer's control, except as permitted by law. In case of postponement, the registration automatically carries over to the new date. In case of cancellation before the start, the base fee is refunded within 30 days, excluding payment fees.

• Accuracy of data: The participant is responsible for it. The Organizer may verify it and reject or cancel any incorrect registration without refund.

• The participant (race bib, T-shirt, timing chip) must collect them in person with the original registration document or with a written authorization. The Organizer may refuse delivery if documents are missing or data does not match. T-shirts are issued subject to availability and in any available size, without compensation.

• The bib number may not be replaced and its data may not be modified. The participant is responsible for their bib and chip. Failure to collect on the announced dates forfeits the right and does not entitle the participant to a refund of the fee or to any substitute.

• Minors (under 15 years): A minor may not be registered without the consent of their guardian. The guardian is responsible for the suitability of the minor's health condition and for supervising them before and after the race and on the course. The Organizer may bar a minor from any category or distance that is not appropriate for their age.

• The participant declares that they are in a health and physical condition that permits participation, undertakes to disclose any known health condition that may affect their safety, and consents to a fitness check and to providing emergency contact details.

• The participant understands that running on public roads alongside thousands of participants involves usual and unusual risks (falls, collisions, exertion, heat, dehydration, cardiac events, crowding and traffic), participates at their own risk, and bears what arises from them to the extent permitted by law.

• The medical team may prevent the participant from starting or stop them at any time, and its decision is effective immediately. The participant consents to first aid and to transfer to the nearest hospital when necessary. The medical team's services are limited to first aid, and the cost of treatment is borne by the participant or their insurance.

• The participant must wear their bib visibly and comply with the official course, timing and monitoring points, and the instructions of referees, organizers, and medical and security authorities. It is prohibited to use any means of transport or assistance; to bring children, animals, bicycles or drones; to display political or commercial slogans; or to engage in aggressive behavior or obstruct others.

• The Organizer may set a maximum time limit for finishing the race and stop anyone who exceeds it, and may disqualify anyone who violates the rules or endangers their own safety or that of others, without refund of the fee.

• Results are calculated according to the approved timing system. In case of manipulation, cheating or violation, the Organizer may annul the result and disqualify the participant even after the result has been announced. The official results issued by the Organizer are the sole reference.

• Objections must be submitted in writing, with supporting evidence, within 3 days of the announcement of the preliminary results through the official channel, and the decision of the competent committee is final.

• Prizes are as officially announced by the Organizer, subject to verification of identity, age and validity of registration. The Organizer may withhold or withdraw them in case of manipulation, violation, or breach of anti-doping rules, and no prize will be awarded where there is suspicion or a pending objection.

• The participant consents to the publication of their name, result and ranking within the official results.

• The Organizer, in coordination with the competent authorities, may modify the date, course, timing, categories or distances of the race, and may postpone, stop or cancel it even after it has started, in the event of weather, security or emergency conditions or force majeure (any event beyond the Organizer's control that cannot be foreseen or prevented), or on the instructions of the competent authorities.

• The Organizer bears no responsibility for the race not being held on its scheduled date, nor for travel, accommodation or booking expenses, and the participant has no right to claim compensation for a change of date or course.

• To the extent permitted by law, the Organizer is not liable for indirect damages or lost profits, and its compensation for any breach of contract shall not exceed the value of the registration fee paid. This does not apply to fraud, gross negligence, or consumer rights established by law.

• The participant is responsible for their belongings, and it is recommended not to bring valuables. The Organizer is not liable for their loss or damage, and baggage storage services, if available, do not create an obligation of custody.

• Complaints: In writing through the official channels, including the participant's details, bib number, details of the incident and supporting documents, within 30 days of race day, without suspending results or organizational decisions except by decision of the competent committee.

• Personal data: The participant consents to the Organizer collecting and processing their data for the purposes of registration, verification of identity and age, race organization, timing, announcement of results, and emergencies, in accordance with Law No. 151 of 2020. It shall not be used for any other purpose, nor disclosed to anyone other than the competent authorities and the Organizer's contractors, except with the participant's consent or by force of law.

• General provisions: These Terms are governed by Egyptian law, and the Cairo courts have jurisdiction over disputes, without prejudice to the consumer's right to resort to the competent administrative authorities. The invalidity of any clause does not affect the remaining clauses. These Terms constitute the entire agreement, and notices shall be sent to the registered email address and phone number.
