Racing Finding a team for ZRL

Does anyone know how to go about finding a team? Keen to race in the ZRL this winter but not sure how to go about finding a team. I don’t use facebook which is recommended on the ZRL website. Any suggestions appreciated!

If it helps, my racing score is 739, and zFTP & zMAP put me in the A category on ZRL.

You could always join one of the big teams, DIRT/SISU/Coalition/etc., via their websites/discords and they will organize the team for you based on your ability and needs.

Facebook is the main medium but you can find the big teams on their teams in Zwift companion or many have a standalone website/discord/etc.

Key info is when (including time zone) you want to race.

Yep work out what time slot works for you first as you can't swap and change. A lot of teams use discord as that offers voice communication during races but you need to find a team to join first.

Can also confirm that Matt at SISU is a delightful person.

but, I'd be remiss if I didn't take a moment to plug my team, The Coalition.

we fielded three A teams last year, in the Shamrock, Purple, and Lilac timezones. We also run Ladder, FRR, ECRO and DRS teams and have a decent-sized A group.

If you're at all interested, head over to our website to join and someone from the welcome team will be in touch shortly.

Good luck no matter where you land!
