Code of Practice - Track

Track officials should:

• Always carry spare equipment i.e. clipboards, pencils, plain paper and lap charts
• Ensure all equipment is set out correctly and is safe to use
• Ensure all incident reports are made quickly and accurately by the method required by the Referee.
• Refer any queries or complaints from a third party (not and official) to the referee.
• Liaise with Field Officials where field athletes may be using the track for their rune up when a track event is in progress (i.e. High Jump and Javelin
• Do not impede other officials carrying out their duties i.e. 4 x 400m relay. Timekeepers will need to be by the trackside when taking splits on the first change when a long stagger is used at the start
