Team Finder
By AdventureLisa on Jun 21, 2010 in Fun Stuff
Looking for a team to join or a teammate to join your team for a race?
It is not always easy to find teammates, especially when you’re new to the sport and often, at the last minute, a replacement may be needed.
When you’ve exhausted your supply of willing and able friends and relations, try this Team Finder.
In your comment below mention:
- do you want to join a team or are you looking for someone to join your team
- date of event
- distance (sometimes events offer more than one distance)
- where you are located (Jo’burg, Pretoria, Durbs, CT etc)
- team format (mixed, pairs, 3′s, 4′s etc) and how many people you are looking to recruit
- what type of person you’re looking for (male, female, experienced, navigator, workhorse, very fit, any)
- your ambitions for the race (competitive, for fun, to gain experience)
- your contact details (phone and email)
You’ll have more success if you’re more specific instead of “I’m looking for a team”. Rather try to build or join a team for a specific event. Please also use the AR email group, which is very effective.
Finally, when your request is successfully fulfilled, please add another comment saying so. I will remove your request from the list so that you don’t keep getting enquiries.

Hi , ek wil graag in AR betrokke raak, geen ondervinding maar het ‘n paar driekampe en trail runnings gedoen. Woon in Struisbaai.
I’m looking for a partner for the WCAD adventure race in Ceres on 12 November. I’m new to AR but am an experienced trail runner and have some orienteering experience. Race ambition is to have fun and to start adventure racing.
Based in Cape Town. fisher.vn@gmail.com
Hi,
We are looking for a girl to complete our team for the Dark Horse (30hr AR) 13-15 April. Experience will be an advantage, but being fit and able to tough it out AR style much more so. We are JHB/PTA based.
If interested – contact me at pavheerden@yahoo.com
Hi
Looking for a racing partner.
Your location in SA is not all that relevant as I train regularly and seek a partner that does the same.
Possibly a partner with good orienteering skills? Male / female.
Would prefer to identify a few races a year and train accordingly. I’m new to AR.
Cheers,
Gareth
