schedule conflicts. Events will not be held or rescheduled to accommodate
potential conflicts. A separate entry form must be completed for
each sport, and each sport carries its own entry fee.

in the Open Division of the Games in another sport if I have entered
the Masters Division?
NO! You may only compete in either the Masters Division
or the Open Division - not both.
5. Do I have to pickup my ESG ID and
clothing before my competition?
Except for Archery and Track & Field Events in which ESG shirts
and numbers must be worn in competition, you do not have to pick
up anything before you compete. However, it is suggested that you
do stop at the registration site first to pick up everything and
double check your entry and competition schedule.
6. Will I have to drive to my venue?
YES, it is up to the athlete to drive to his or her
venue site, however shuttle service may be available for selected
venues - check the 'Games Plan" booklet included in your packet
when you register.
7. Can I participate in the Opening
Ceremonies?
YES, but you must wear an ESG 2008 sweatsuit.
Sweatsuits must be preordered and prepaid. You will march in with
Masters Athletes - look for the Masters Banner at the Opening Ceremonies
staging area.
8. Will I receive a refund if I can not compete
in the Games?
Refunds will be issued only for the cost of a sweatsuit
(if ordered).
9. Will I need to show Identification
prior to competition?
YES. All participants must present a photo ID at packet
pickup AND before the start of competition. This rule will be strictly
enforced. Those without proper identification will be prohibited
from the Games.

with a NYS issued Driver License or non-driver ID.
