UKA RULES

 

22nd May 2007

 

Dear Colleague

 

The new edition of the UKA Rule Book will be produced in 2008.  We are giving the opportunity for interested parties to make suggestions for changes for that new edition. You may find the following guidelines of some assistance:-

 

  1. Recommendations should only come from Home Countries, Territories and affiliated Clubs and Associations via a Club/Association Management Committee or Annual General meeting.

 

  1. Suggestions from individuals will only be considered if they have the support of the Club/Association.  These details must be included.

 

  1. Ideally it would be beneficial if the recommendation has the support of more than one Club/Association.

 

  1. Recommendations should not include precise wording for the proposed change – these will be considered later.

 

  1. All suggested recommendations should be received by the 30th July at the latest.

 

  1. Please direct proposals to Cherry Alexander at UK Athletics.

 

When the deadline date has been reached, the various recommendations will be referred to the appropriate Policy and Support Team and the UKA Technical Committee.  If accepted, the changes will be passed to the Rules Revision Group for final wording.

 

Please also note that a number of potential technical rule changes will have to await the outcome of the IAAF Congress in Osaka in August 2007.

 

Many thanks for your co-operation.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Niels de Vos

Chief Executive
