BRCA National/Regoinal track width requirements?
 
Do the BRCA state a minimum or maximum width for tracks that apply for a Regoinal or National?

If so, what is it please?

i'm sure national is minimum 8ft wide and straight minimum of 25m long. think regionals have a smaller minimum. it's all in the handbook if you have one to hand.

Thanks :)

actually, straight may be 20m long not 25. but width is 8ft, pretty sure on that. someone with a hand book will be able to confirm.

OK just for you mr oxley

Taken from the handbook

14.5 At all National format events outdoors track will be a minimum of 3 metres wide and minimum of 130 meters in length.

14.6At sanctioned events other than nationals (aka regionals) track must be a minimum of 2.4 metres wide.

14.7 The straight for starting finals will be a minimum of 20 metres long with no obstructions including any sort of jump or sudden rise of fall.
