    Procedure of Participation in Ijf Competitions for the Athletes Who Want to Represent Another Country

    PROCEDURE OF PARTICIPATION IN IJF COMPETITIONS FOR THE ATHLETES WHO WANT TO REPRESENT ANOTHER COUNTRY The Article 1.7 of the IJF Sport Organization Rules relating to changes of nationality provides that: The athletes must be of the same nationality as the National Federation for which they have been entered for the competition. Persons appointed by the Executive Committee of the IJF shall verify the citizenship of the athletes. The evidence of citizenship shall be the production of a passport issued by the represented country. In the following cases, procedures must be applied: a) Where the competitions are being held in a country in which the residents do not hold passports while in that country. b) Where there is a possible problem of “joint citizenship”, e.g. Puerto Rico an acceptable substitute for the passport will be a letter or certificate from the athlete’s National Olympic Committee (NOC) or, if there is no such body, from the National Sports Authority confirming the athlete’s residence in that country and the citizenship. If a competitor has multiple citizenships, they may compete for only one country. 1.7.1 Change of Nationality A competitor who has represented one country in: • Olympic Games • World Championships (senior, junior, cadet) • Continental Championships (senior, junior, cadet) • Regional Games and Multi-Sport Games (such as Pan American Games, African Games, European Games, Commonwealth Games, Mediterranean Games, Francophone Games, Youth Olympic Games) • International Tournaments organised by the IJF (Grand Prix, Grand Slam, Masters) or under its auspices (continental open and cups) • All competitions in the IJF calendar except veterans, kata, military* and who has changed his nationality or acquired a new nationality may represent his new country provided that at least three years have passed since the athlete last represented his former country.

It is now more important as an organization to become transparent and open in our National Team selections. As such, the Federation saw the increased need to ensure that proper structures, policies and procedures are put in place to ensure fair selection processes are established as we move forward. The Government of Trinidad and Tobago has identified cycling as one of the fourteen sporting activities that is to receive special support over the short and medium terms. The sport therefore, has the potential to benefit from this recognition and the formulation and proper documentation of policies and procedures within the fraternity is one important step in capitalizing on the opportunity present themselves. The TTCF has recognized the need for formulating this policy and has initiated this effort to prepare and document it.

This thesis examines the injury incidence associated with playing professional rugby league, and examines some of the risks associated with injury whilst playing the game. The first paper describes the pattern of injury incidence in professional rugby league and noted that it is higher than in other popular team sports. The second paper examines the different exposures of forward and back players and observes that forwards experience higher rates of injury. The third and fourth papers examine the effect of moving the playing calendar to summer rugby.
