Proposal
OLD RULE: 4C.5 Officials Can Compete
The Referee may not compete in any competition where they may be required to make a
decision. The Muni Director may compete, as long as the race course has been announced
early enough that the Muni Director does not have an advantage from knowledge of the
course.
NEW RULE: 4C.5 Officials Can Compete
The Referee may not compete in any competition where they may be required to make a
decision. The Muni Director or Course Marshall may compete, as long as the race course has been announced
early enough that they do not have an advantage from knowledge of the course.
Body
Current Rule:
4C.5 Officials Can Compete
The Referee may not compete in any competition where they may be required to make a
decision. The Muni Director may compete, as long as the race course has been announced
early enough that the Muni Director does not have an advantage from knowledge of the
course.
The Course Marshall is not included. The Course Marshall helps Muni Director to select racing course, and therefore it should be experienced expert rider, and those riders are usually wanting to participate in the race. If banned, they would not be willing to volunteer as Course Marshalls.
