Hi everyone ,

Regarding the checkpoint location for the 2020 Rules , May someone clarify the 3.3.2 ?
rule 3.3.2 says …

3.3.2 The checkpoint marker is a marker that indicates for humans which tiles are checkpoints. It can be 5 mm
to 12mm thick and up to 70 mm in diameter. The number of checkpoint markers and their locations will be
predetermined by the field designers.

• So dose that mean the teams are not able to chose where they want to place the checkpoints anymore ?
• and the Judge will place them on the field by his decision?
• and is it the same place for all the team on the same round or the judge can change them for each team at the same round ?
( asking thins question just for the fair , because I think it should be the same for all the team on the same round )

please if anyone can explain this rule in details because the national competition is soon and we want to run the event.

Regards,
Mahmood Madi,
Chief-Judge RCJ
