  1. 9. Complaints
    Based on complaints and to try and assist with numbers available for marshalling AW and RW propose changing how events are run.  All competitors will have to complete 3 runs before any competitor can attempt a 4th.  Any competitors unable to complete 3 runs by the mid point of the day will have their runs forfeited however they may be able to continue from their 4th run after the mid point.
  2. Also

    There is also a change with late competitors signing on and taking part. Normally if a member gave notice of late attendance to Membership, they would have a briefing and walk round at the mid-point on the day. This meant they would have 6 runs. Now due to the new rule change, members arriving late are still able to compete later in the day (with a valid reason and notice given) but will only have 3 runs.

    All agree, SS does not agree.

 

  1. 10. Committee Communication
