Join the Rangers Skydive Team!
Wed 8th June 2016
We’ve already got several brave supporters signed up to skydive from 10,000 feet on Sunday 4 September and we’re looking for more big hearted bears to join them and create a Rangers Skydive Team for the day!
If you’re up for the ultimate adrenalin challenge then get in touch and you too could be experiencing the thrill of looking down from your plane 10,000 feet up and preparing to jump! You will fall at 120mph through the air strapped to your instructor before opening your chute and drifting down over the beautiful Perthshire countryside!
The Rangers Charity Foundation’s tandem skydive challenge is an experience not to be missed and is also the chance to raise funds for worthwhile causes and receive a True Blue Hero’s medal from a Rangers first team player!
The skydive will take place at Strathallan Airfield near Auchterarder in Perthshire. For the tandem skydive you will be connected via a harness to a fully qualified tandem instructor. The instructor will guide you through the whole jump from exit through freefall, piloting the canopy and landing and you will receive all the instruction you need on the day of the skydive. No prior experience is necessary.
The tandem skydive usually costs £280 per person however if the Foundation secures 10 participants a special price of £250 applies. There are 2 ways to take part in this amazing skydive:
- You can raise sponsorship of £500 (or £560) from family and friends and take part in the Rangers Charity Foundation skydive for free OR
- You can pay for the cost of the Rangers Charity Foundation tandem skydive yourself and raise a suggested £250 in sponsorship for the Foundation.
Please note that participants must be over 16 years of age and under 49 and weigh less than 14 stone. Participants are required to complete an Indemnity Form and a Declaration of Fitness Form. If you are over 40, your medical form should also be signed by your GP. If you are aged between 16 and 18 years old, you must gain the consent of your parent or guardian.
