REGULATIONS 3 NATIONS CUP 2017
General rules
The UCI regulations, in particular Part 6, Racing regulations BMX in the last published edition, are applicable to the 3 nations cup.

Front- and sideplates
The front- and sideplates are provided by the organizing committee of the 3 Nations Cup in 2017. The use of these front- and sideplates during races and training sessions for the 3 Nations Cup is compulsory. The plates will only be provided once and are therefore to be used during all three races which form part of the 3 Nations Cup. In case the plates are no longer usable due to damaging or faded print, the rider is responsible to purchase a new set of plates. When the rider is not using the provided plates during races or training sessions for the 3 Nations Cup, the rider will not be included in the results and will therefore receive a DNS as result.
When a rider is seen without an official plate during training sessions, he or she will receive an official warning; a subsequent offence will result in disqualification from the event.
The plates will be provided to the riders by the national team manager or Chef d’Equipes of each country on registration at the races.

Pedal click systems
The use of interlocking pedal click systems is only allowed for riders holding a license for the age of 11 and older during races and training sessions.
