Event organisers are to note that Service Regulations apply at all times to service transport, including vehicles that are hired at public expense.

This will have implications for event organisers, especially with respect to how visitors are looked after. Check out JSP 800 for details.

2020 AWSA Nordic Competition Rules
The AWSA Army Ski Competition Rule Book is published in 2 disciplines – Alpine and Nordic. The Nordic ski disciplines covered include Biathlon, Cross Country (XC) and the Military Patrol Race.
SIGNIFICANT REVISIONS IN THIS EDITION
- AWSA 1.11 (IBU 1.2): The “3rd year Junior”, i.e. born in 1998, will now count as a “Junior” in the context of the “Novice / Junior / Youth Rule” (AWSA 1.5).
- AWSA C.13 & C.14: Revised Qualification system for male teams and female athletes to Ex RUCKSACK.
- FIS have changed their terminology from ‘Ladies’ to ‘Women’, which aligns with that used by IBU. Therefore all AWSA competitions are now for Men and/or Women. Corps and unit ski teams may continue to use ‘Ladies’ in their team titles, as that is a CO’s prerogative.
This 2020 edition is effective from 01 October 2019. It completely replaces all previous editions, amendments and drafts of the AWSA Nordic Rule Book, which should be destroyed.
