We’re apart this year — but more connected than ever. Join up with family, co-workers, and new friends online and on the phone for even more connection and community. There's a reason more than 80% of Obliteriders are part of a team. Whether you participate solo or with a group, Obliteride is an amazing experience of strength. So go ahead, find your dream team this year.
Every team has at least one team captain who organizes the group and helps everyone stay on track, fundraise, and meet their goals.
There are different kinds of teams, from employer-sponsored teams to friends and family joining up for a great cause.
If you’ve been invited to a team, or know the one you’d like to join, select it at registration. If you’d like to join a team but don’t have one in mind, register for Obliteride first. Then, email teams@obliteride.org and we’ll help find a group for you!
It’s fun! There is no better way to stay motivated, build meaningful relationships, and support a great cause. Plus, you’ll have access to team challenges, team-specific events, a team concierge, and more.
Here’s a look back at our 2019 event. This year, the group hugs can wait — but our amazing connection won’t have to!

My favorite part of Obliteride was bringing a team together and supporting a cause bigger than all of us.
