We are pleased to provide an update on the development of the Exceptional Circumstances policy. Following the initial draft, which was published on our website for a period of consultation, we received valuable feedback from the community, particularly concerning the National Trials.
This feedback has been carefully reviewed by the CCPG and the Board Director responsible for Performance. After thorough consideration, the key challenge remains in ensuring clarity and certainty to athletes and their supporting adults (coaches and parents).
As a result, the CCPG and the Board have approved the Exceptional Circumstances policy for the 2025 season. Please view it here
