 5.         A competitor having entered a BICTSF event and fails to attend and/or fails to notify the organisers that they are unable to compete (without reasonable excuse) shall be penalised by either forfeiting their entry (if pre paid) or pay a fine equal to the entry fee.

Failure to pay this fine within fourteen days of notification will automatically suspend the miscreant from all events held under the auspices of the Federation until such time as the Federation's Board shall determine.

 6.         A competitor who retires early during a BICTSF event (without good reason) may be subject to disciplinary action.

 7.         For Olympic disciplines and Universal Trench, Referees and judges will be appointed in turn from the previous squad i.e. one referee, one scorer and one visible marker board scorer.  It is the competitor’s responsibility to ensure they serve in one of these capacities when it is their turn to do so.

Any competitor who refuses this responsibility will have one target deducted from his score for each refusal; persistent refusal may result in disqualification.

The Referee will be the most experienced of the three and shall be fully conversant with the rules.  If there is any doubt as to the rankings the following shall be used to determine seniority:

§                     Qualified Referee in the discipline.

§                     British Team Member.

§                     National Team Member.

§                     Classification in descending order.

It is strongly recommended that competitors acquaint themselves fully with the rules so that when called upon, they are capable of carrying out these duties correctly.

 9.         A Jury for each event will be selected from the list of competitors by the organisers and it is a requirement that a competitor will serve on the Jury if selected.  Any competitor refusing, without just cause, will be disqualified.

 10        UK Sport may carry out random dope testing at any event without prior notice to BICTSF.  Competitors selected by UK Sport’s doping control staff to take part in a dope test are urged to comply with their instructions.  Penalties for failure to comply with instructions or the discovery of a prohibited substance in a test sample can result in severe penalties.  Competitors should familiarise themselves thoroughly with the information provided on UK Sport’s Drug Information Database on their website at http://www.didglobal.com/page/didenqs/home and also British Shooting’s website at http://www.britishshooting.org.uk/content/view/65/35/ for their policy that applies to BICTSF activities.  Please be aware that it is the competitor’s responsibility for ensuring compliance with the regulations regarding their medication, either purchased over the counter or prescribed by a medical practitioner.

 11.       Competitors with a query regarding an entry or wishing to withdraw from an event should send an email to entries@bictsf.com or telephone 07527 899354.  Please note entries will not be accepted by telephone.
