Preamble
Topic: Other proposed changes to the Official Handbook
Background:
- 5.3(b) – Proposal to amend the requirement where an individual enters more than one category for which a levy is payable (Open, Veterans, U20), so that the player is only charged once by both the MNA/tournament organiser and FISTF
In some tournaments, players have the right to play in two categories. It happens when the event itself fails to provide enough players in a category. Very often, it happens with women and young players. They shouldn’t be financially penalised. It is proposed to amend Article 2.5.3(b) so that:
-
- Organisers should not have the right to make a player pay two registrations.
- FISTF only requires should not make the tournament organisers to pay taxes twice as it is now.
