8.11. P63, 3.1 para 3. In order to allow maximum discretion and consideration to paddlers having valid reasons for not paddling, it is proposed that this paragraph be amended as follows:
Delete the words ‘ the early’ in the first sentence and replace with ‘a major’. Also delete “injury, travel or work” and replace with “unforeseen circumstances” The sentence will read “…..race in the major part of the year due to unforeseen circumstances”
It is felt that at present this rule did not go far enough. It only dealt with one end of the season and did not take into account for example pregnancy.
Proposed by the Slalom Committee
