Teams

Starting or joining a team is the best way to experience The Prouty. Teammates can train together, swap stories, strategize about fundraising and support each other. Most importantly - teams have an even greater impact when they go all in to end cancer.

Team Basics

  • A team has a minimum of two people. There is no maximum.
  • Every Team has a team fundraising goal they can work toward. See Fundraising Tips Here.
  • Team members are also responsible for reaching their own individual fundraising minimums (if applicable).
  • A participant can only register as a member of one team.
  • You do not need to be registered for the same Prouty event to be on the same team.
