FITA Rule interpetation - line
cutters
"The FITA rules regarding 'Line Cutters' are used
for Qualifying Rounds in field tournaments only, they do not refer to domestic
target rounds".
Judges therefore please continue to judge the value of
arrows (line cutters) as before and if necessary please advise archers.
"This interpretation will come into effect from 1st January 2007"
Before 1st April 2006 archers with line cutters were able to call a
judge to decide arrow values if fellow archers disputed their call, from that
date each target group had to decide amongst themselves, see the FITA rule
9.10.1 under.
Field rounds shot in the UK are not classed as Qualification
as they are not followed by Elimination or Head to Head rounds therefore rule
9.10.1 does not apply.
FITA rule book No 4
9.10 QUESTIONS AND
DISPUTES
9.10.1 Any athlete on the target will refer any questions about
the value of an arrow in the target face, before the arrows are drawn, to:
• during the Qualification rounds to the competitors in the group. The
majority opinion of the group will decide on the value – if there is split
decision (50/50) the arrow will be given the higher value. That decision of the
archers is final.
• during the Elimination and Finals rounds, if the
athletes cannot agree on the value of an arrow, a judge will be called to
decide on the value of the arrow.
LYME DISEASE?
You and your dog may be at risk from Lyme Disease when you visit the
countryside. It is caused by a bacterium carried by ticks. People who walk in
the countryside, especially those walking through grass, rough vegetation or
wild areas such as heathland, are more at risk.
Lyme Disease is
an infection which can affect the skin and occasionally cause serious illness
of the nervous system, joints or heart.
It is caused by a spiral-shaped
bacterium, transmitted by the bite of an infected tick.
Ticks are tiny
spider-like creatures which live in woodland, moorland and grassy areas. Unlike
spiders, however, they press themselves close to the skin of the host as they
crawl.
The highest risk was thought to be from April to October when the
tick was most active and feeding, but research has now shown that, in certain
areas, ticks may be active most of the year.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Wear light-coloured clothing
(ticks are easier to see).
Wear long trousers tucked into socks.
Wear
long sleeved tops.
Avoid tall grass and shrubby areas.
Keep to centre of
tracks.
Inspect for ticks every few hours and, if possible, at the end of
your day's outdoor activity, undress and completely check your body for
ticks.
Use a tick repellent containing the active ingredient permethrin
(Duranon, Permethrin Tick Repellent, Permanone), or N,N-diethyl-meta-tolumide,
usually called DEET (Off, Cutters, Muskoi, etc.) Follow label directions. These
products repel 82-100% of ticks.
WHAT IF I
AM BITTEN?
Remove the tick as soon as possible by grasping it close
to the skin with tweezers. Apply gentle pressure, twisting anti-clockwise
upwards, repeating if necessary. Part of the tick may remain embedded, but you
will have prevented the tick transferring the infection to you. (Save the tick
in a sealed container in case you develop symptons later.)
Should I see my Doctor?
The disease may
first show itself as an expanding reddish, round rash (erythema migrans) in the
area of the bite. This rash starts three to thiry days later. Early symptons
may resemble influenza ('flu,) with swollen glands near the site, mild
headaches, aching muscles and joints, and tiredness.
If left untreated,
the disease may develop over the months and even years, when facial muscle
weakness, meningitis-like symptons, and/or arthritus symptoms may
occur.
If you have any of these symptoms and you suspect that you may
have been bitten by a tick, inform your doctor. Lyme Disease is treatable with
antibiotics and the earlier it is diagnosed, the better.
