CONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIPS GENERAL RULES
The European Championships are open only to official national teams that belong to a full ISF Member nation. However, national teams belonging to countries where no Full ISF member exists, may participate with the permission of the ISF Board, providing all relevant documents. An extra registration fee, set by the ISF, is payable, and the ISF rules and regulations must be strictly adhered to. Only one team will be allowed per nation. Each National Team is responsible for registering their competitors in Continental Championships. All team members must be of the nationality of the country they represent.

NATIONAL TEAMS
The official national team of each country must be declared on the ISF official form at the beginning of the Championships and updated only for registering new members at least 12 hours before each race. Each team may be composed of a minimum of two to a maximum of 12 components (mixed gender). A registered team member cannot be replaced by another that is not participating in the European Championships. All members of each team must be identified by the same kit or logo.

REGISTRATION
For all ISF Continental Championships national teams must register via their ISF full member association. Team members must belong to the country they represent (no foreign members). Skyrunners with dual nationality must select one nationality to represent at the beginning of each season.
