Reminder About Scratchings
Athletes and Team managers are reminded of the need to scratch from any events they do not intend to take part in before midnight on Wednesday 6 December. After that time only scratchings from all events will be accepted. This rule does not apply to the Road Races and schools are allowed to substitute for athletes who make track finals on Sunday without cost, provided these substitutions are submitted to the TIC as soon as possible after the completion of any 3000m heats required on Saturday evening. The relevant parts of IAAF Rule 142.4 are attached with annotations in red. |
