5. Age Qualification – For junior (under age) events all competitors must be under the relevant age as at 31 December 2024. 

6. Athletes with a para-athlete classification and wishing to compete with such classification must indicate their existing or expected classification in the relevant box on the entry form. Para-athletes will in general where circumstances permit compete simultaneously with other athletes in each event entered.

7. Multiple Entries: Provided they are age-eligible, athletes may enter the same or a similar individual event in no more than two age groups. If an athlete enters the same or a similar individual event in a second age group, one age group must be that relating to their year of birth. For the avoidance of doubt “the same or a similar individual event” means events in the same column in Appendix A. The only exception will be the U15 (born 2010) and U16 (born 2009) age groups since athletes are not permitted to enter both these age groups. If enterinn either of these age groups, the athlete must enter that which applies specifically to their year of birth. If they wish to enter a further age group (subject to regulation 26) it would be U18, U20 or open in both cases. To be clear an U14 (born 2011 or 2012) athlete may enter (subject to regulation 27.3) an event only in their own age group (U14). An athlete may not enter two age groups of the same or a similar individual event when according to the published draft timetable they are scheduled to be held simultaneously. No restrictions will apply age-wise to relay events but clubs are expected to exercise care and responsibility in allocating athletes to multiple relay events. Similarly when an athlete enters a higher age group than their own, the athlete, parent and coach are expected to make responsible decisions in this relation to both that and the athlete’s total entry list workload over the championships.
