Age & Gender based Categories

For non-championship rogaines, there are four age based classes of competition:

1. Open  (no age restriction)
2. Junior  (all team members must be under 18 years of age on the first day of competition)
3. Veteran  (all team members must be 40 years of age or over on the first day of competition)
4. Super Veteran  (all team members must be 55 years of age or over on the first day of competition)

For the NSW Championship 24 hour rogaine the age based classes of competition are:

1. Open  (no age restriction)
2. Under23  (all team members must be under 23 years of age on the first day of competition)
3. Veteran  (all team members must be 40 years of age or over on the first day of competition)
4. Super Veteran  (all team members must be 55 years of age or over on the first day of competition)

In addition, for all events, there are three gender categories within each age class:

1. Men  (all team members must be male)
2. Women  (all team members must be female)
3. Mixed  (teams must contain at least one female and one male)

Family Category

NSWRA also usually offers a "Family" category at events. The team members must include at least two members of the same family, who represent two generations. One must be a child under 18 years of age on the first day of competition.

Novice Category

Some events offer a Novice category where all team members must never have previously entered a rogaine.
