Recent Rule Clarifications: Notified to clubs on 25 May The following rules have been reviewed for clarification internationally and the following judgments will now be applied. 4.8 Manikin Relay (4x 25m) 4.15 Brick Relay (4x25m) Clarification: 4x25m Manikin or Brick Relay Teams will not be disqualified if: The second and fourth competitor touched or had their hand on a lane rope while the first competitor was swimming their leg of the race; or The first and fourth competitor touched or had their hand on a lane rope while the second competitor was swimming their leg of the race; or The first and third competitor touched or had their hand on a lane rope while the third competitor was swimming their leg of the race. Providing that:

5 5 The second competitor was not touching the lane rope at the time of taking the manikin/brick from the first competitor; and The fourth competitor was not touching the lane rope at the time of taking the manikin/brick from the third competitor; and At all times there was no affect or interference to competing teams by the competitors in adjoining lane caused by touching or holding onto the lane rope It is important that noninvolved members in a relay changeover stay well clear of the involved member in the process (e.g. the fourth competitor cannot have any involvement in the changeover between the first and second competitors). As such the best way to demonstrate this is to be as far to the side as possible from the changeover and this may include touching or holding the lane rope. The reason for this is includes: The only specific requirement listed is d) which requires competitors to remain in the water at the surface in their lanes until the completion of the event is signalled; and There will be no judging of competitors who while not actually completing their leg of the race as having taken assistance for the lane rope to gain an advantage (Section c)) unless they interfered with a team in the adjoining lane. 4.7 Line Throw 12.5 m Current Rule: Event description b) Starting position: The thrower stands in the throw zone facing the victim, motionless with heels and/or knees together and arms straight down and beside the body. The end of the throw line is held in one hand. The victim treads water on the near side of the rigid crossbar in allotted lane. The victim holds both the throw line and the crossbar with one or two hands. Clarification: The thrower may have the end of the line completely within their hand or up to 10cm (one hand width) extending out the back of the hand while in the starting position. Officials and/or Starter are required to inform athletes if they are not in the correct starting position before the Starters command Take your marks is given. 3.2 Starts - b) Check that competitors, manikin handlers and victims are properly attired and in correct positions. If a competitor has been instructed to correct their starting position and does not do so, it may be ruled as an unfair advantage and therefore result in a DQ. However, competitors competing in the incorrect attire may not use this as means to prevent disqualification, as they alone are responsible for ensuring that they are wearing the correct racing attire at all times. Swim Fins Clarification: Fiberglass fins are permitted to be used by competitors in the 14 masters divisions only. Fin socks may be worn to ensure correct sizing of fins. However, adhesive tape, external fin savers or other fastening devices are not permitted to be used with fins. Manikin Carry Clarification: The manikin must not be carried underneath the competitor s body. Correct manikin carry positions

6 6 Incorrect manikin carry position Manikin Relay (4x25m) Clarification: Question: Can the manikin be pushed by the first competitor in the start zone. Answer: Yes, a manikin can be pushed in the start zone by the first competitor, so long as they remain in contact with the manikin at all times, including the transition from pushing to carrying the manikin, and so long as the manikin is in the required carry position before the head of the manikin exits the start zone. Patient Tow Clarification: A patient is not permitted to use their hands and/or arms (sculling) to assist their forward progress. Mega Relay Clarification: There is no requirement for competitors two, four or six to break the surface prior to the completion of their legs. However, it is highly recommended that the sixth competitor s contact with the finish wall is clearly visible to the time keepers.
