Proposals for changes to the UKA Rules for Competition
Athletics has a set of Rules for Competition and a series of official notification periods for proposed changes to them. The invitation to make proposals for changes to the UKA rules for the UKA Rule Book for 2026-2028 went out at the beginning of April 2025 and we remind you that the process is open until 25 June 2025.
UK Athletics will continue with the principle of combining the UKA and World Athletics rule books into one publication and providing the opportunity for amending UKA Domestic Rules arising from proposals from the sport.
Guidance on the process and the form for submission of proposals are contained in the Rules of Competition page on the UKA website.
Note: changes that will be taking effect for the age group changes will sit outside this process as there has already been significant consultation in this area.
