SWEEPSTAKES OFFICIAL RULES 

Last Updated: [07/10/23] 

 

  1. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN A SWEEPSTAKES. A PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.

 

SWEEPSTAKES ARE INTENDED FOR PLAY ONLY IN THE FIFTY UNITED STATES AND DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (THE “U.S.”) AND CANADA (COLLECTIVELY, THE “ELIGIBLE TERRITORY”), AND ARE VOID OUTSIDE THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORY AND WHEREVER PROHIBITED. 

 

  1. Overview. These Bauer MVP Sweepstakes Official Rules (“Official Rules”) govern promotions offered in connection with Bauer MVP™ where one enters for a chance to win a prize to be awarded on a randomized basis from eligible entries received during a specified time period (subject to an additional requirement for Canadian residents to correctly and independently answer a math skill question before being verified as the winner) (each such promotion referred to herein as a “Sweepstakes”).

 

Each Sweepstakes is sponsored by Bauer Hockey, LLC, 100 Domain Dr., Exeter, NH 03833 and Bauer Hockey Ltd. 55 Standish Court – 7th floor, Mississauga, Ontario, CANADA, L5R 4B2 (together, “Bauer Hockey” or “Sponsor”). 

 

In addition to being subject to these Official Rules, each Sweepstakes is subject to Specific Sweepstakes Terms for that Sweepstakes (as defined in Section 3, below) and to the BAUER MVP Loyalty Program Terms and Conditions found here (the “BAUER MVP Terms”), including the defined terms found in such BAUER MVP Terms.  

 

For purposes of these Official Rules, Sweepstakes are only open to currently enrolled Members (as defined in the BAUER MVP Terms) who meet the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 5, below (or as otherwise set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms), and who comply with all requirements set forth in these Official Rules and in the applicable Specific Sweepstakes Terms. 

 

  1. Specific Sweepstakes Terms. Each Sweepstakes (a “Specific Sweepstakes”) that Sponsor runs will be subject to these Official Rules and to any Specific Sweepstakes terms announced in connection with the Specific Sweepstakes (“Specific Sweepstakes Terms”), which will include the Sweepstakes Entry Period (as defined in Section 4, below) and specific prize (“Reward”) information for that Sweepstakes.  If there are any inconsistencies between these Official Rules and the Specific Sweepstakes Terms, the Specific Sweepstakes Terms will prevail.

 

  1. Promotional Periods and Entry Period Dates and Times. Over the course of each calendar year, Sponsor will operate promotional periods, the exact dates of which will be posted on the BAUER MVP Site (as defined in the BAUER MVP Terms) and in each Member’s BAUER MVP Account (each a “Promotional Period”).  During those Promotional Periods, Sponsor will offer one or more Sweepstakes.  Each such Sweepstakes may start and end on different dates and times during that Promotional Period, as set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms for each Sweepstakes (“Sweepstakes Entry Period”).  

 

Unless otherwise set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms for a particular Sweepstakes, the Sweepstakes Entry Period will always start at 12:00 a.m. ET on the start date and ends at 11:59 p.m. ET on the end date set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms, which is the time during which an Eligible Participant can enter a particular Sweepstakes.  

 

  1. Eligibility. Unless otherwise specified in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms, Sweepstakes are open only to Members (as defined in the BAUER MVP Terms) in good standing at the time of entry and Reward awarding, except that the following Members are ineligible to enter a Sweepstakes or win a Reward:

 

  1. Sponsor or its affiliated entities employees, officers, directors, contractors, representatives, mandataries or agents (“Sponsor Personnel”); 
  1. the employees, officers, directors, contractors, or agents of Sponsor’s advertising, promotion, marketing, PR or fulfillment agencies, or any other agency working with Sponsor in connection with the BAUER MVP or any Sweepstakes (“Agency Personnel”); 
  1. employees, officers or directors of retailers who sell Bauer Merchandise, as defined in the BAUER MVP Terms (“Retailer Personnel”); 
  1. an immediate family member of any of the foregoing (defined as a parent, sibling, spouse or child; whether biological, adopted, step or in-law) or household member (whether related or not) of any of the individuals identified in subsections (a)-(c) above. 

 

Those Members that meet these eligibility criteria are eligible for the Sweepstakes, unless there are specific eligibility criteria set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms for a particular Sweepstakes, in which case those specific criteria shall apply for purposes of that Sweepstakes only (“Eligible Participants”). 

 

  1. Shots. During each Promotional Period, Eligible Participants will be allotted a certain number of entries (each a “Shot”) that they can use to enter any of the Sweepstakes that Sponsor offers during that Promotional Period.  The number of Shots that an Eligible Participant will receive for each Promotional Period is determined by the Member Tier (as established in the BAUER MVP Terms) that the Eligible Participant is in as of the start date of the Promotional Period, as set forth in Table 6.1, below.  If an Eligible Participant is assigned to a higher Tier within BAUER MVP during the Promotional Period, that Eligible Participant will receive the additional Shots associated with that higher Tier and may use those additional Shots for any remaining Sweepstakes that are still open during the Promotional Period.  An Eligible Participant can use all of their Shots for a single Sweepstakes in the Promotional Period, or divide them up into different Sweepstakes.  Once an Eligible Participant has used all of their Shots for that Promotional Period, if another Sweepstakes is announced for that Promotional Period, the Eligible Participant will not be able to enter that subsequent Sweepstakes unless the Eligible Participant reallocates the Shots that they used in an earlier Sweepstakes in that Promotional Period to the subsequent Sweepstakes, but an Eligible Participant may only reallocate Shots from the earlier Sweepstakes if the Sweepstakes Entry Period that the Eligible Participant wants to reallocate Shots from is still open.  Once a Sweepstakes Entry Period has closed, an Eligible Participant may no longer reallocate Shots from that Sweepstakes to a different Sweepstakes.  If an Eligible Participant has not used all of their Shots for a Promotional Period by the end of the Promotional Period, they will forfeit their unused Shots (i.e., unused Shots will not roll over to the next Promotional Period).  At the beginning of the next Promotional Period, each Eligible Participant will receive a full set of new Shots, the number of which will depend on the Eligible Participant’s Tier at the time of the start of the new Promotional Period.

  1. 7. How to Enter. Unless otherwise set forth in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms, Eligible Participants may enter a Sweepstakes in one of two ways:

 

  1. On the BAUER MVP Site (“Site Shots”). If you are an Eligible Participant and wish to enter a Sweepstakes, visit the Bauer MVP page on bauer.com or ca.buaer.com (the “BAUER MVP Site”)  during the Sweepstakes Entry Period, use your password to log in to the BAUER MVP Site and follow the prompts to the Sweepstakes page on the BAUER MVP Site. Then click the “Enter” button for the particular Sweepstakes you wish to enter with the number of Shots you have available that you wish to enter into that Sweepstakes.  You can enter all of your remaining Shots that you have for a Promotional Period in one Sweepstakes (provided the Sweepstakes Entry Period for that Sweepstakes is open), or save some of your remaining Shots for other Sweepstakes that may be running or may still be announced during the same Promotional Period.  You may come back and enter more Shots into a Sweepstakes at a later time, as long as you do so before the Sweepstakes Entry Period for that Sweepstakes ends and up to the maximum Shots you have available for your Tier.  

 

  1. To Enter by Mail (“Mail Shots”). If you are an Eligible Participant and wish to enter a Sweepstakes by mail, during the Sweepstakes Entry Period hand-print the following information on a 3”x5” card: your first and last name, street address, the email address associated with your BAUER MVP Account, the name of the Sweepstakes you wish to enter, and the number of Shots you wish to enter into that Sweepstakes  (the “Mail In Shot Form”).  Mail your Mail In Shot Form to55 Standish Court – 7th floor, Mississauga, Ontario, CANADA, L5R 4B2, postmarked during the applicable Sweepstakes Entry Period for the Sweepstakes that you are seeking to enter, and received within one week following the last day of that Sweepstakes Entry Period.  You may submit a separate Mail In Shot Form for each Sweepstakes that you wish to enter during a Promotional Period, but regardless of your BAUER MVP Tier, you must not designate more than a total of twenty (20) Shots across all combined Mail Submissions and Site Submissions during a single Promotional Period.  Each Mail In Shot Form must be for a separate Sweepstakes and must be sent in a separate mailing envelope with the correct postage.  You cannot re-allocate Mail Shots once submitted. 

 

  1. When being referred to in a manner where no there is no distinction between Site Shots and Mail Shots, both will be referred to simply as Shots; otherwise, they will be identified as Mail Shots or Site Shots, and collectively as “Combined Shots.” 

 

In the event of a dispute over the identity of an entrant, the authorized account holder of the BAUER MVP Account, who must match the authorized account holder of the email address used to register the BAUER MVP Account, will be deemed to be the entrant. The authorized account holder of an email address shall mean the natural person assigned to such account by the Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with such account. The potential winner may be required to provide identification sufficient to show that he/she was the authorized account holder of such email address. 

 

An Eligible Participant’s Site Shots will always be tallied at the end of a Promotional Period, before their Mail Shots (if any) are added to that tally.  If with the addition of the Mail Shots an Eligible Participant’s Combined Shots exceed twenty (20) in any Promotional Period (regardless of Shot method received), the Mail Shots that were last received (or last opened if all received on the same date) that put that Eligible Participant in excess of a total of twenty Combined Shots will be disqualified.  If Sponsor cannot determine the order in which an Eligible Participant’s Mail Shots were received, Sponsor reserves the right to allocate the Eligible Participant’s Mail Shots into the available Sweepstakes identified in the Mail Shots in the order in which Sponsor opens the  Eligible Participant’s Mail Shots.  If a Mail In Shot Form is received that fails to identify the name of the Sweepstakes that an Eligible Participant was seeking to enter, Sponsor may pick an eligible Sweepstakes in which to include the Shot(s) based on eligible Sweepstakes Entry Period in which the mail In Shot Form was postmarked and received, if any. If there is no Sweepstakes Entry Period that coincides with the date a Mail In Shot Form was postmarked and received, the request will be disqualified and no Mail Shots will be entered. Shots and any material accompanying them become the property of Sponsor and will not be returned and may not be acknowledged. Shots received that are not in conformance with the Official Rules may be disqualified, in Sponsor’s sole discretion. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, illegible, misdirected, mutilated, damaged, postage due or incomplete Shots. Shots made through any robotic, automatic, mechanical, programmed, or similar entry duplication methods will be disqualified, and Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any individual using such methods. 

 

  1. Winner Determination. Unless otherwise stated in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms,  winner(s) for each Sweepstakes will be selected at random from among all eligible Submissions received for that Sweepstakes at 55 Standish Court – 7th floor, Mississauga, Ontario, CANADA, L5R 4B2, on or about noon ET on the second Wednesday following the end date of the applicable Promotional Period in which the Sweepstakes occurs.  If there are multiple Rewards available to be awarded in the Sweepstakes, the random selection will start with the Grand Reward first (if any), and working from 1st Place Reward to 2nd Place Reward and onward.

 

Upon: (a) verification as detailed in Section 10, below; (b) where required, return of the completed and signed Reward Claim Form (as defined below) within the prescribed time frame; (c) in the case that the eligible winner is a Canadian resident, the eligible winner correctly answering a Skill Question (as defined below); (d) if requested, return of signed authorization to conduct a background check on potential winner and any guest(s) participating in the Reward; and (e) compliance with any other requirements or conditions that may be set out in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms, the Reward will be awarded to the verified winning Eligible Participant (the “Winner”), or on behalf of the Winner to the Winner’s parent/legal guardian if such Winner is a minor in his/her jurisdiction of residence. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible Shots received for that particular Sweepstakes.  

 

  1. Reward(s). The prize(s) (each individually a “Reward” and collectively the “Rewards”) and Reward value(s) for each Sweepstakes will be announced in the Specific Sweepstakes Terms.  If more than one Reward is offered in a particular Sweepstakes, there is a limit of one Reward per person per Sweepstakes.
