Determination of Trophy Competition Winner

1) The Trophy Competition is an exercise of skill and chance plays no part in determining the winners. The Trophy Competition involves selection of a winner by a judge or judging panel during the Competition. The Grand Prize winner will be selected from all valid entries in the Trophy Competition.  A different panel of judges may be used for each “heat” of the Trophy Competition.  Odds of winning depend on: (1) the calibre of the Entrant Participant’s and Co-Entrant/Teammate’s performance in the challenges; (ii) the number of entrants the day of the Trophy Competition; and (iii) the score the Entrant Participant and Co-Entrant/Teammate obtain during the Trophy Competition.

2) Land Rover and an appointed panel will judge and record the scores, times and penalties.  Rankings as judged by Land Rover are final.  In the event of a tie for any Trophy Competition wave, a judge will determine the winner based on the fastest cumulative time across timed challenges.  Land Rover reserves the right to not award a Grand Prize if, in its sole opinion, it does not receive a sufficient number of eligible and qualified entries.  Judging scores will not be revealed.

3) The relevant judging panel will select the winning entry for the Trophy Competition based on a fair objective judging criteria. Land Rover reserves the right to amend the judging criteria before the start of the Trophy Competition to account for weather, local conditions, or current events the day of the Competition. Entrants’ chances of winning depend on their skill in completing challenges during the allotted time during the Trophy Competition and meeting the applicable criteria to the satisfaction of the judges.

4) Scoring:  There will be up to sixteen different “challenge” activities as part of the Trophy Competition, each assigned a maximum number of points. 

    a. The team who achieves the fastest time with the lowest number of penalties, will earn the highest points available for that challenge.  The team that completes the challenge with the second fastest time and the second least amount of penalties will receive the maximum number of points minus 10 points. This process will be followed to score the rest of the teams who participate.

    b. The overall team scores for each “heat” may be modified on a uniform scale depending on elements outside of the team’s control.  For example, extraordinary weather.

    c. Failure to complete a challenge may result in zero (0) points. 

    d. Any intentional negligence while driving and /or vehicle damage may result in a disqualification of competition. 

    e. The Trophy Competition Winner will be the team that has the highest number of points across all challenges at the end of the Trophy Competition day.

    f. Exact task scores will not be shared until after the event if requested and an official protest must be filed with the competition manager on the day of competition. The competition manager has the ultimate authority and discretion in rules, violations, and protest actions. 

5) Land Rover reserves the right to verify the identity and age of a winner prior to awarding any Grand Prize. Trophy Competition winner may also be subject to a criminal record or associated background check to ensure suitability of representing the brand.

6) The Trophy Competition winner will be notified by e-mail.  The winner of the Grand Prize will have seven (7) days from the date and time the notification was sent to claim the prize by replying in the way required in the notification.

7) If the winner (or later substitute winner) of the Grand Prize does not respond within this timeframe, Land Rover reserves the right to disqualify the winner and instruct the judging panel to select a substitute winner, at its sole discretion.

8) The Trophy Competition winning team members’ names and states may be made available by Land Rover on the Trophy Competition website for a limited time once the winner has been selected.

9) Third party suppliers of the Grand Prize (including venues) may also often stipulate their own terms, conditions or restrictions and all prize winners agree to be bound by these. 

10) The winner may be required to sign and return any documents reasonably requested by Land Rover including an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release, prior to receiving any portion of the Grand Prize.  Failure to return any required document by the date requested will render the potential winner ineligible to receive the Grand Prize. If any documentation is not returned as requested within 72 hours of notification via transmission to the email address provided in the entry or other method, or if a potential winner is deemed ineligible prior to a Grand Prize being awarded, Land Rover may, in its sole discretion, award a Grand Prize to the next alternative potential winner selected by the judging panel.  

11) The winner of the Trophy Competition (i.e., the team comprised of the Entrant Participant and Co-Entrant/Teammate) must also participate in the Trophy Experience as part of the Grand Prize.  Since the Grand Prize is non-transferable, if, for any reason, the winner (i.e., Entrant Participant) identifies a teammate to participate in the Trophy Experience that is different than the Co-Entrant/Teammate that participated in the Trophy Competition, Land Rover reserves the right to deny substituting any individual to ensure that the individual’s capabilities are consistent with the demands of the Trophy Experience.
