Teams from Himmafushi, Thinadhoo City, and Naifaru can register online from 17th to 24th July 2024. Each team, comprising 8 to 12 members including a captain and officials, will compete on specified dates:
- 9 August: K. Himmafushi

In the event of oversubscription, a draw will determine the participating teams, with full refunds for those not selected. A total prize pool of MVR 126,000 awaits the winners, with awards for the top three teams and recognitions for the best fisherman and fisherwoman.
Ooredoo Maldives encourages government bodies, corporations, and the public to participate in Masrace 2024, promising not just competitive excitement but also a celebration of Maldivian fishing culture and traditional techniques.
