Rules
Tournament will be governed by World Athletics Technical Rules 2022, except as modified herein.
The use of starting blocks is not required.
Racewalk (powerwalk) will be conducted using the following rules: One foot must be on the ground at all times. Both feet off the ground is cause for disqualification. Each advancing foot-strike must be heel to toe at all times. Striking with the toe or ball of the advancing foot is considered running, or “creeping” and is cause for disqualification. The advancing leg as it moves forward does not have to be completely locked as it passes under the body as it does in racewalking. Soft knee is acceptable however over excessive bent knee is deemed to be in a creeping or running shuffle and subject to disqualification. Disqualification will result when an athlete is judged to be in violation of the above rules in three separate instances by three separate officials during the course of the completion.
*** as we are unlikely to have 3 race walk judges we should have one chief judge who can make final decision*
