| Meeting judges-competitors-Committee |
The IPC has arranged to have a meeting between competitors, judges and the present members/advisors of the Committee before the start of the 2nd WPC in Corowa, Australia. Here competitors will have the opportunity to ask any questions they might have on the present rules. Furthermore, they can present their new moves (not listed in the addendum-C) and have them rated for difficulty.
All competitors and judges will be informed at the WPC site about the time and location of this meeting.
| Revised Addendum C - difficulty |
The Committee received approval to distribute an updated version of the addendum C 'difficulty' of the competition rules in order to deal with the latest developments in the sport.
Talks, letters and E-mails with competitors around the world has led to the revised addendum C Version II of July 1999. This addendum will be distributed along with this bulletin, to the entered competitors at the WPC Australia and to all NAC's. Furthermore it is available on the FAI website.
