This section contains the general course regulations for various events. No matter the level of the event
or the flexibility to be applied to its organisation, the course set-up will always consist of eight obstacles
over a 60m-70m distance for both individual and relay competitions.
The length of the course is a horizontal distance measured along the centreline of a lane from the
vertical plane of the start line to the vertical plane of the finish buzzer centreline, with the athletes
competing in two lanes.
The course can be set on a straight line, curve, or “u”/ “v” shape. The examples shown on the figures
above mentioned refers to a straight-line course.
