Also some local shows may operate age on day.
Races which have an FRA Permit and associated UKA insurance must comply with the "FRA Rules for Competition" which state:-
RULE TENUnder 16 - 4 miles (6.4k)
Race organisers must stipulate age limits for their events but the following maximum distance limits for juniors must be observed.
Ages are as at 1st January in the year of competition.
For FRA Fell Races, the minimum age for competition is six years, and the following distance limits must be applied.
Under 8 - ½ mile (0.8k)
Under 10 - 1 mile (1.6k)
Under 12 - 2 miles (3.2k)
Under 14 - 3 miles (4.8k)
Under 18 - 6 miles (9.6k)

Indeed it is we had hoped to have some of our juniors race Devils Beeftub as it was advertised as min age 12 and only a 2 mile race but low and behold the minimum age is now 16. Shocking

The problem was that we as a club were looking to have a couple of juniors to run for the senior team a real chance to be part of the senior event. Simply running over the same course in a junior race doesnt give them a chance to score for the seniors.
