ik denk na de offiziele bespreking in Juni

II. PROPOSALS FOR THE SPEED SKATING SECTION
A. SPECIAL REGULATIONS SPEED SKATING
78. NETHERLANDS
Rule 201, paragraph 2
Amend and add new schedule F
The distances may be run according to one of the following six programs at the option of the organizer in consultation
with the Speed Skating Technical Committee.
Program F
a) first day: 500m Men, 1500m Ladies, 5000m Men
b) second day: 500m Ladies, 1500m Men, 3000m Ladies
c) third day: 5000m Ladies, 10 000m Men
Reason: The spreading of all distances in Allround tournaments over the days should be reconsidered in a way that the
ladies distances are fully put to use.
79. Speed Skating Technical Committee
Rule 201, paragraph 6
Amend to read:
6. The distances for the World Junior Championships are:
a) for the allround combination over 4 distances for Ladies: 500, 1000, 1500 and 3000 meters;
b) for the allround combination over 4 distances for Men: 500, 1500, 3000 and 5000 meters;
c) as team competition for Ladies: Team Pursuit race over 6 laps, for national teams consisting of 3 Skaters per
team;
d) as team competition for Men: Team Pursuit race over 8 laps, for national teams consisting of 3 Skaters per
team;
e) for single distance competitions for Ladies: 500 (skated twice), 1000, 1500 and 3000 meters;
f) for single distance competitions for Men: 500 (skated twice), 1000, 1500 and 5000 meters.
Reason: The World Junior Championships is an important tool to promote speed skating among the membership of
ISU, and to prepare junior skaters to make the transition to the competitive environment at the senior level. The
Championships should therefore offer a similar range of opportunities as the major competitions at the senior level,
where single distance events play an important part (World Cup, World Single Distances Championships and Olympic
Winter Games). It is therefore proposed to extend the program of the Championships to include also Single Distance
Competitions, in all Olympic Distances where World Junior Records are recognized. Details on the competition format
are presented in proposals for changes of the applicable Technical Rules.
80. USA, Speed
Rule 201, paragraphs 6 & 7
Amend to read:
World Junior Championships
6. The distances for the World Junior Championships are:
a) for Ladies:
Individual competitions: 500, 1000, 1500 and 3000 meters.
Team Competitions: Team Pursuit race over 6 laps for national teams consisting of three (3) skaters
per team;
b) for Men:
Individual competitions: 500, 1000, 1500 and 5000 meters.
Team Competitions: Team Pursuit race over 8 laps for national teams consisting of three (3) skaters
per team;
The 500 meters for Ladies and Men will be skated twice. The classification will be based on total time in the two races,
see also Rule 265, paragraph 1.
7. The World Junior Championships are organized over three days. The distances will be run according to the
following program:
a) first day:
500m Ladies (1)
500m Men (1)
500m Ladies (2)
500m Men (2)
b) second day:
1500m Ladies
1500m Men
29
3000m Ladies
5000m Men
c) third day:
1000m Ladies
1000m Men
Team Pursuit Ladies Finals
Team Pursuit Men Finals
Quartet starts should be used over the distances 3000m (Ladies and Men) and 5000m (Men)
Reason: The World Junior Championships should be conducted in a single distance format. This is the same format as
the World Single Distance Championships and the Olympic Games. This allows for specialization of individual
athletes. There are a number of junior age skaters already competing at the senior level.
81. Speed Skating Technical Committee
Rule 201, paragraph 7
Amend to read:
7. The World Junior Championships are organized over three days. The distances will be run according to the
following program:
a) first day: b) second day: c) third day:
500m Ladies 500m Men (2nd race) 500m Ladies (2nd race)
500m Men 1000m Ladies 1000m Men
1500m Ladies 1500m Men Team Pursuit Ladies (qualification phase)
3000m Men 3000m Ladies Team Pursuit Men (qualification phase)
5000m Men Team Pursuit Finals Ladies
Team Pursuit Finals Men
Quartet starts should be used over the distances 3000 m (Ladies and Men) and 5000 m (Men).
Reason: To accommodate a set of single distance competitions in the program, without changing the sequences of
distances for the allround championships, and maintaining a balanced program over three days. Athletes competing in
the allround championships will be competing also in the single distance competitions concerned, except possibly for
the 500m, where a second race will be run to determine the winner of this distance (see details in proposal for changes
in the applicable Technical Rules).
82. Speed Skating Technical Committee
Rule 201, paragraph 9
Amend to read:
9. The World Single Distances Championships are organized over four days. The distances will be run in the
following order:
a) first day: b) second day:
1000m Men 1000m Ladies
1500m Ladies 1500m Men
5000m Men 3000m Ladies
c) third day: d) fourth day:
500m Men(1) 500m Ladies (1)
5000m Ladies 500m Ladies (2)
500m Men (2) Team Pursuit Men
10 000m Men Team Pursuit Ladies
Reason: To create a better balance in a program over four days, in particular to meet the general request to have both
team events on the final day.
83. Speed Skating Technical Committee
Rule 208, paragraph 2 a)
Amend to read:
2. a) Entries for World Single Distances Championships will be accepted only for skaters and pursuit teams who are
qualified through results achieved in the Speed Skating World Cup or in other World Championships during the
season.
ISU Members may enter a maximum of 3 competitors in each distance. If more than 3 Skaters from the same Member
are among the Skaters qualified or placed in the respective reserve list according to subparagraphs c) and d) below, the
final entries from that Member must indicate which of these Skaters shall participate in the Championship. The
remaining qualified Skaters may be entered as substitutes for the distance concerned.
Delete remaining part of the subparagraph.
30
Reason: Redrafting, to provide a clarification that is more in line with the practice that has developed. Skaters placed
on the reserve list need to be entered in order to be eligible to compete, in the case that some Members will not use
their entire entry quota. As a consequence the last part of the paragraph should be deleted here, and rather be included
and clarified in subparagraph c).
