Conduct:

The National Intergrity Framework, including its Member Protection Policy, and Code of Conduct, along with PCV’s Child Safety Policy applies to TeamVIC, to ensure a positive, enjoyable and safe environment for all.  Any breach of these policies will not be tolerated, and dealt with swiftly.

Participation Costs:

Participation in TeamVIC is fully self-funded, so riders will be required to meet the costs of being a member of a team. Such costs include host state and administration levies, uniform, transport, accommodation, and meals.

To assist with planning, PCV can provide some indicative costs to assist you in budgetting for participation should you be selected. The cost for entering a national level event can be approximately $600.  The total cost of participation can vary greatly, depending upon the location, travel options, uniforms, timing of the event and when travel and accommodation bookings are made.
