Competition Numbers
Each competitor must have their 4 digit number (club code plus 2 numbers as determined on the entry form) marked clearly on the back of their right hand at all times. On the back of their left hand, they should have their age group marked. This is essential for the recording process to operate effectively, as the recorders will only record the numbers of the competitor against the placing on their sheets.

Ski and Board Availability
Clubs must ensure that they have sufficient equipment and craft for their entered competitors as some age groups may race together. Events will not be held up awaiting craft retrieval from finishing areas.
