The Elite Paddle Games format is a team competition raced individually, combining the best of both worlds: 1) an inclusive, egalitarian team effort and 2) recognition of top individual performers.

Racing as a team fosters collaboration, unity, and support. It combines diverse strengths, allowing members to push each other towards better performances.

Each paddler contributes to their team earning points creating a strong sense of camaraderie and collective achievement, while also promoting trust and mutual accountability.
