The Schedule

The Rules!1. Groups must be made up of girls/women only – this includes the play

workers/accompanying adults.2. Groups can be no bigger than 10 including young people and workers.3. Groups should be inclusive fielding teams of varying ages, gender,

ethnicity and ability. Maximum age for team members is 16 years. 4. Groups should supply their kart driver/s with a cycling helmet and gloves.5. Groups can prepare adornments only ahead of the event such as horns

and flags. No other preconstruction is permitted.6. A photo consent form will need to be completed prior to the event as we

will be inviting the media and using images for publicity. See below.7. Drinks will be supplied by London Play but groups will need to bring their

own lunches and snacks.8. Karts can only be raced once a London Play team member has issued a

‘safe to race’ licence. Karts unable to race can still win other prizes based on design and decoration.

9. Groups must clear up their work areas before the racing begins and all karts must be taken home by their groups at the end of the day.

We have enough timber, paints, bolts, washers and nails for everyone. We would ask groups to let us know if they have their own wheels to ensure we buy exactly what we need on the day. We have a limited number of tools so if you want to avoid sharing bring your own - don’t forget to fully charge up drill batteries etc as there will be no power available on site.
