IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL RACERS
22nd July 2007

Due to the increasing frequency of unsportsmanlike behaviour at dry slope races this year following gate faults, including carrying on to cross the Finish Line, swearing, and pole abuse, all TD’s & Race Organisers have been reminded that sanctions are to be applied if behaviour contravenes competition rules.

Please be aware that this could ultimately lead to the sanction of ‘suspension from events’ (ICR 223.3.2).

It might be timely to remind clubs & coaches of their responsibility to educate their athletes in sportsmanlike behaviour.
