Annual President Awards Dinner 2022 21-10-22

 

New UKA Rules agreed - The UKA Executive Board has approved the following Rule amendments for 2012-2014 (Effective from 1st April 2012) Track & Field Permitting: Permitting all Track & Field fixtures-Level 2 (County level) to Level 5 (international level) by UKA to be introduced with the exception that Level 2 permits in the Celtic Home Countries are undertaken by those Home Countries. Eligibility-Club Transfers: An athlete should be allowed to change his First claim club once every year with only a minimal administrative period between with no further penalty (currently four months) since so few Eligibility committees are giving anything more than one month at the present time. Athletes changing more than once a year will be subject to the current rule of four months. False Start Rule: The current international false start rule of DQ at the first failure has been applied to Seniors from 2010. It is decided that this rule will now include the U20 and U17 Age Groups with effect from 1st April 2013. U15 Boys and 400m v 300m rule proposal: It is agreed that U15 boys will run 300m in Championship events and U15 National League. Other competition providers can use their discretion and include a 400m for Under 15 boys within their programmes if they so wish. NB: KCAA Track & Field committee have agreed to adopt this new distance for U15 Boys in the 2012 KYAL Other proposals did not get accepted. 12-02-12
