Reno, Nevada – With the overwhelming interest from women across the globe, the Rebelle Rally announced the International Cup for the 2017 edition of the event.   Already, six international teams are confirmed, with several others actively working to participate.

“We are breaking down the borders and tearing down the walls.  It is our way for the rally and US teams to show respect and appreciation for the efforts it takes to participate. From travel, language, customs, currencies, added costs, etc., we know it isn’t easy, but we want competitors to feel a warm welcome to the USA,” explained rally founder Emily Miller.

International teams will bear the special International designation on their vests. The highest scoring international team, comprised of two non-US entrants, will receive $2,500 to the non-profit organization of their choice in their team’s name, have their name live on the much-anticipated “Prize Cup,” and take home a special International Cup plaque.

An International team is defined as 2 teammates, non-US citizens or holding dual citizenship, and a valid non-US passport. A minimum one teammate must live full-time abroad.

Rally organizers are working to simplify the process of participation with two companies providing event ready vehicles for rent as an affordable alternative to shipping.  On Tuesday, May 2nd @ 9AM PST (California), 5PM GMT+1 (UK) the Rebelle will hold an informational conference call for interested International teams. “How to Rebelle” topics will include:  format, logistics, schedule, translation options, vehicle rentals, and additional helpful items.
