Registrations for the world’s largest multi-sport event – open to everyone rather than just elite athletes and running 10-18 October – close at 5.00pm on Friday 31 July.

'We’re ringing the bell for the final lap of the Games registration marathon,' Games Chair Margy Osmond said. 'You may have left your run late but there’s still time to grasp the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity the Games provide all sport-crazy adults.

'The Games represent an unprecedented chance for everyday people, regardless of their ability in their selected sport, to have the extraordinary experience of taking part in an Olympic-style event in the city responsible for the best-ever Olympics.

'To enter the Games people only need to meet the minimum age requirement for their chosen sport, which is as low as 25 years for swimming and diving and no higher than 35 for any of the 28 popular sports on the competition program.

'It doesn’t matter how good you are. All that matters is your desire to celebrate being fit, fun and forever young this October with the many thousands of local, national and international sportspeople who’ve signed up for the Games already.'

The standard Games competitor registration fee is $220 and includes entry into a sports competition, public transport for two weeks and the opportunity to take part in the largest athletes’ parade ever during the Opening Ceremony at ANZ Stadium.

'Not everyone gets to go to the Olympics but everyone aged 25 plus can put up their hands for the next best thing, this year’s Games in Sydney,' Ms Osmond said.

'Don’t let the Games begin without you! Register before 5.00pm on Friday and be part of what’ll be the next unforgettable international sports event in Sydney.'
