Rules & zero tolerance

In the relay, competitors can visit controls in any order. In cases when the competitor has punched more or fewer

controls than required for their leg, the procedures outlined in the IOF TrailO rules Appendix 6 will be applied:

1. Answers to controls already punched in previous legs will be ignored;

2. If the team have punched fewer than 10 controls after the first leg, or less than 20 controls

after the second leg, the first unsolved controls (in number order) will be marked as invalid,

until the required number of controls is reached;

3. If more than 10 controls are punched in a leg, for each extra control punched, the first control (in number order) with

a correct answer solved in the leg will be marked as invalid, until there are no more extra controls, or no more correct

answers given in the leg.

At the changeover, there will be marshals checking the controls solved in the leg, and marking any additional control as

invalid in the team card as required by point 2 above, and the team card will be retained after the last leg has finished. It is

the competitors’ responsibility to make sure that the controls they have marked as solved in the team card match the

controls they have punched with their SI card; any inconsistencies found may result in disqualification of the team.

If a competitor used the backup pin punches, this is considered as one of their answers in addition to those recorded in

the SI card.

Zero tolerance:

Zero problems are either on a different object, at least 4m from the correct location or 135o from the

correctly described position.
