Athlete Participation Guidelines

This page explains how participation works, who is eligible, and what it means to represent a country.

Sperm Racing

Please read carefully before applying.

What This Is

Sperm Racing is a science-based competitive sport. During the 2026 Sperm Racing International Cup, athletes compete by representing a country, advancing through qualifiers, matchups, and tournament rounds that are broadcast and shared publicly.

This is NOT a lottery or a game of chance.

Selection and advancement are based on eligibility, performance, availability, and competitive structure.

Who Can Apply

To apply, you must:

  • Be 18 years or older
  • Be a real individual (not a company or organization)
  • Be legally allowed to participate under your local laws
  • Be able to provide biological samples in compliance with applicable regulations
  • Be willing to appear in recorded content and competition coverage
  • Be available for remote participation and potential in-person events
  • No sexually transmitted diseases
  • Agree to follow competition rules and instructions

Applying does not guarantee selection.

Country Representation Rules

Each country is represented by ONE (1) athlete during the Qualifiers stage.

To represent a country, you must meet at least one of the following:

You may represent a country if:

  • You have at least 25% ancestry from that country (for example: one grandparent, or equivalent lineage)
  • One or both parents are from that country
  • You were born in that country
  • You hold citizenship or permanent residency there
  • You have a strong cultural or familial connection that can be reasonably verified

Sponsor reserves the right to request clarification or documentation at later stages.

Choosing a Country

  • Population-dense countries (e.g. United States, India, China) are more competitive
  • Smaller or under-represented countries may have fewer applicants
  • Athletes are encouraged to apply strategically if eligible for multiple countries

Sponsor may:

  • Ask athletes to switch countries for competitive balance
  • Decline country assignments that do not meet eligibility standards
  • Make final determinations in cases of overlap or dispute

All country assignments are finalized by Sponsor.
