Thank you for logging in - NZ Law Enforcement Torch Run

Thank you for logging into the LETR SO Club portal.

The LETR endeavours to provide support and attendance for all the requests to attend Special Olympics sporting events we receive but recognise that given time, distance, and the operational and personal commitments of our volunteers, this may not always be possible. The greatest asset in any request for LETR attendance is time. The more we have, the better our chances of organising attendance so please ensure requests for attendance are submitted at the earliest possible opportunity.

Before proceeding with an equipment funding request, please note the following information;

The equipment nominated for purchase and funded by LETR Victoria, will remain the property of the sporting club nominated on this form and Special Olympics Victoria (SOV). It will be recorded on the SOV equipment register and must be made available to SOV, on loan, if required for a specific sporting event.
Because of the strict financial reporting requirements for registered charities like the LETR, the LETR will only reimburse funds directly to recognised Special Olympics Club bank accounts. Any refund for purchases of equipment by an individual must be made by the club once LETR funding has been received.

WAIVER TERMS & CONDITIONS

Background

The Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) conducts a wide range of events throughout the year in support of Special Olympics New Zealand. These events serve both to raise funds and to promote awareness of Special Olympics activities at local, regional, and national levels. Examples of such events include, but are not limited to:

Polar Plunge events,
Torch Run and associated supporting activities,
Club, regional, and national sports and games events,
Athlete Leadership Programs,
Family fun days,
Special Olympics program events.

These events are organised by Law Enforcement Torch Run New Zealand Incorporated in collaboration with Special
Olympics New Zealand.

Participation in these events may involve physical exertion and/or risks inherent in recreational, leisure, or sporting activities. It is important to note that:

Participant Responsibilities:

Event organisers do not possess knowledge of individual participants’ physical abilities or disabilities. Accordingly, they are not reasonably able to assess, nor do they accept responsibility for assessing, the safety of an individual’s participation. Each participant is responsible for determining their own fitness and capacity to engage safely in the event.

On-Duty Status for Police Employees:

Police employees may attend LETR events in an “on duty” capacity, but this
status must be granted and confirmed in advance. In most cases, securing “on duty”
status is the responsibility of the individual participant and must be sought through
the appropriate command structure. Event organisers may facilitate this process
where explicitly stated.

By participating in LETR events, participants acknowledge these terms and
accept all associated risks inherent in the activities.
