Do It Online

It's Easy

New Zealand Masters Games is using the internet more and more to stay in touch with you and offer you access to all the important information about the Games including the ability to enter the Games online. Why? Because it is a quick and easy way to keep you right up to date about the really cool stuff that’s coming up, giving you 24/7 access to what you want and when you want it! It also saves on administrative costs and expensive hard copy meaning we can pass on the savings to you by keeping the entry fees at the same low cost that we have been able to offer in the past.

Website Updated

When entries open in August all the details about the sports and all the other exciting things that are planned for the February Games will be on the website www.nzmg.com. That info is available 24/7 and will always be right up to date. Why would you expect anything less?

Newsletters and Entry Book

A special newsletter will be sent out to you in August to remind you entries are open and that it’s a good time to register and save money with the Early Bird entry. The big Entry Book will not appear in your mailbox this year, but if you really want something in hard copy you will be able to find a smaller version in selected outlets around the country. More detail on this coming soon.

Online Entry is Instant

We really want you to be fully informed about the Games and the website is the best place to go for that. And while you are there, complete the entry process in just a few minutes and the job is done. We have made more improvements to the registration system to make it even quicker and easier for you. We are sure you will enjoy the new way to ‘get into the Games’.

Save Time and Money

If the internet is still a new thing for you, then why not join the 1000's of others who choose to enter online, saving dollars and time on the way. It’s fun and easy and you will have your entry confirmation back to you within minutes. No more waiting for the postie to deliver the mail.

Stuck?!

If you are totally stuck without a computer, don’t worry. You can call us on 0800 35 40 45 and we’ll assist you to get your entry in.
