Athletics has a set of rules for Competition and a series of official notification periods for proposed changes to them.
WEF 1.4.2016 UKA Rules for Competition have been merged with IAAF Rules and renumbered accordingly. All specific UKA Domestic Rules are shown in blue and where common rules previously applied across disciplines, these have been merged under one heading: for example you will find all age group rules under Rule 141
UK Athletics governs the Rules for Competition for the following disciplines:
- Track and Field Competition
- Road Running Competition
- Cross Country Running
- Fell and Hill Running
- Race Walking
- Trail Running
The UK Athletics Rules for Competition are published every two years.
