WHAT IS CATEGORY ENFORCEMENT?

Category Enforcement will prevent Zwifters from entering a category they are not eligible for. Our goal is to increase fairness in racing.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

- Zwift checks a racer's past performance using VO2 max and FTP to determine their race category.
- Racers can join a category at or above their category. For example, if you are "C" category, you can race in C, B, or A category. You can not race in the D category.


Keep it Super Simple. Race hard and race fair.
Please use ZwiftPower's Minimum Category on your profile for race entry.
Cats A, and B will require a power source (power meter or smart trainer) and heart rate monitor.
Cat C will require power source (power meter or smart trainer) and heart rate monitor for podium spots.
Podium finishers in Cat A are expected to dual (power) record and to make analysis publicly available on ZwiftPower; they must also be using a direct drive trainer or power meter.
**Elite level performances are also expected to be supported by dual (power) recordings from reputable power sources or easily verifiable outside data. This applies to those with a history of such performances.
** 5.2 w/kg (20 mins); 6 w/kg (5 mins); 9.8 w/kg (1 min)
Zwift Activities must be saved publicly.
Please also maintain an open and active Strava profile to facilitate organiser inquiry.
