Qualifying Races

The upcoming lottery (to be held on Dec 4, 2021) will be for the 2022 race. Because of the cancellation of so many races around the world, including WSER, the qualifying window is two years (November 4, 2019 through November 7, 2021). You must run a qualifier off of either the 2021 or 2022 qualifying races lists below to enter the 2022 race lottery.

For the 2023 race lottery, the qualifying period will be back to one year (November 8, 2021 through Sunday November 6, 2022). You must run a qualifier off the 2023 qualifying races list below to enter the 2023 race lottery.

We update the list of qualifying races once a year each September. We welcome corrections of factual errors at anytime. While every effort is made to ensure that this information is current, complete and accurate, WS cannot be held responsible for any loss, injury, claim, liability, or damage related to your reliance thereon. WS reserves the right to determine all WS qualifiers. For more information on our criteria for choosing qualifying races click here

An event that is not on the lists cannot be used as a qualifier.

Please see our Entry Process page for more details.
