[NSRCA-discussion] F3A World Result

Kevin,

The point of that rule was to level the playing field, so to speak, so that
a Junior WC could still defend their title at the next WC.  That was never
the case in the 3 prior WCs - the Junior category was added to the WCs in
2011.  Also, the Jury can't make a decision for everyone - they can only
impact the WC in progress.  Now, if a rule change is needed, or a
clarification needs to be made going forward, based on the decision of the
Jury at a WC (based on a protest), then this type of issue needs to be
raised at the F3A Sub-committee level, and once there is agreement there
then it should be voted and accepted at the Bureau level.  If a
clarification is made then it needs to be official and the wording needs to
be changed to address it.

BTW, I'm all for increasing the exposure of young people to the sport at
the highest level.

-Derek
