Ahead of the qualifiers we will take all of the valid entries and will randomly generate a series of races. These will be available on line ahead of the race.
The qualifiers will be run on Wed 14th at 7pm, Friday 16th at 7pm and on Saturday 17th. All If you miss the date or your duck doesn't qualify we will run final qualifying races on the Saturday afternoon.
From each qualifier the first 5 (or more) ducks automatically qualify for the final. We will run a lucky loser selection to fill any extra places available in the final.
A details timetable of events will be released soon. Details will be available on our website, Facebook and Twitter pages.
The earlier you enter the more chance you will have to qualify for the final. Fail on Wednesday, you get a chance in races on the Friday and then again in the lucky losers draw.
You can enter at any time up to the close of entries for the final qualifying race. 3pm on Sat 17th October.
The races will be 'broadcast' on our YouTube channel.
