necessary.

Rules and Regulations

In Short Track Speed Skating a pack of four to eight Skaters race against each other
rather than against the clock. Competitors skate a series of Preliminaries, Heats,
Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Finals over 500, 1000, 1500 meters and 3000 meters
and Relay Events for National teams (composed of four Skaters) over 3000 meters
for Women, 5000 meters for Men and 2000 meters for Mixed Team Relay
(composed of two Women and two Men). Race winners, second and sometimes
third placed Skaters/Teams move up to the next round. Fastest times following
qualified skaters (in individual distances only) may also advance to fill remaining
spots in the next round.
Individual racing rules
   a) Races are run counter-clockwise, that is to say the inner side of the track is
      on the left hand side of the Skater/Relay Team;
   b) Overtaking is allowed at all times, but until the Skaters/Relay Teams are
      besides each other the responsibility for any obstruction or collision shall be
      upon the Skater/Relay Team overtaking, provided the Skater/Relay Team
      being overtaken does not act improperly;
   c) Any Skater/Relay Team who is bound to be lapped, either for the first time or
      other time, must move to the outside and may not interfere with the
      Skater(s)/Relay Teams overtaking him/them. Violation with interference will
      result in a Yellow or Red Card.
   d) If a Skater/Relay Team is lapped twice, that Skater/Relay Team shall leave the
      race unless there are one (1) or more other Skaters/Relay Teams very close to
      his current race position. Skaters/Relay Teams who have left the race on basis
      of this rule shall be recorded as not finished. If the Referee, at his discretion,
      feels that the Skater/Relay Team was prevented from finishing due to
      reasons beyond the Skaters/Relay Teams control, then the Referee may
      declare the Skater/Relay Team having reached the finish but no time shall
      be recorded;
   e) A Skater/Relay Team has completed the distance when the Skater has
      reached the finish line with the leading tip of the skate blade.
Infringements:
   a) The general racing rule is that the Skaters/Relay Teams by their way of
      skating shall contribute to the honest sporting and safe progress of the race
      in order to determine the result of the race on its merits;
   b) Breaches of the racing rules are considered as follows:

                                           4
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

         -   OFF-TRACK: skating with one or both skates on the left side of the
             curve, marked by track marking blocks;
         -   IMPEDING: Impeding, blocking, charging, or pushing another Skater
             with any part of the body. Interfere with another Skater by crossing
             his/her course thereby causing contact;
         -   ASSISTANCE: Each Skater shall compete as an individual. Any
             assistance from other Skaters will be cause for sanctions of all
             Skaters/Relay Teams involved. This will not apply to the push the
             Skater receives from their Team-mate in a Relay race.
         -   KICKING OUT: Kicking out of any skate during any part of a race
             thereby causing danger including at the finish line or throwing the
             body across the finish line is forbidden.

Relay racing rules

   a) Teams consist of maximum of the following number of Competitors:
   World Championships                     5
   World Junior Championships              4
   European Championships          5
   Four Continents Championships 5
   World Cup Competitions          see World Cup Communication
   All other Competitions                  5

   Mixed Team Relay:
   World Championships                 3 per gender
   European Championships              3 per gender
   Four Continents Championships       3 per gender
   World Cup Competitions              4 per gender

   b) All members of a Team shall be equally dressed. Teams which do not comply
      with this shall be excluded from participation in the respective race. For
      Competitions where Skaters from different nations form a team, a simple
      and easy identification system will be sufficient;
   c) A Skater will be in the race and be responsible for the Team until that Skater
      is relayed by a Team member. Relaying will be by touch, that is to say a Skater
      will not be in the race until that Skater has been touched by, or has touched
      the Skater he is relieving;
   d) A Skater may be relayed at any time except during the last two (2) laps. These
      laps must be skated by one Skater. A warning shot will be fired to indicate
      the start of the last three (3) laps;
   e) In the case of a fall during the last two (2) laps, the Skater may be relayed.
   f) A Skater from a team can only come on the track to make an exchange.
      Skaters entering before an exchange and skaters exiting after an exchange
      are also subjected to the applicable racing rules. For eventual additional
      rules for Mixed Gender team competitions see the respective ISU
      Communication.
   g) The non-racing members of each team must stay out of the path of the
      racing Skaters and in an area that is clearly inside curves, marked by track
      marking blocks and a virtual line between the last block and the first block
      of the curves. Only to make an exchange, a Skater may leave this area. The
      line between the last and first block may be marked by dots.

                                         5
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

   h) Exchanges are to be made without interference to other teams. During
      exchanges, changing the lane is not allowed and exchanges are to be made
      straight forward, directly in front of the Skater who is pushing, and the skates
      have to be kept out of blocking.
   i) Interference inside the track with Skaters coming in to take an exchange
      may also be considered an infringement.

Mixed Team Relay Racing Rules

   j) The Individual Racing Rules, paragraphs 1 and 2, and the Relay Racing Rules,
      paragraphs 3 and 4, shall apply to Mixed Team Relay Races, that means for
      all members of the Team, both participating and relayed Team members.
   k) Unless otherwise specified, Mixed Relay Teams consist of a minimum of two
      and a maximum of four Women and a minimum of two and a maximum of
      four Men.
   l) For each race any two of the four named Women and any two of the four
      named Men must take part in the race.
   m) Races will be over 2000 m (18 laps).
   n) The members of the Team have to relay following a fixed schedule: first, 4 x
      2,5 laps, then 4 x 2 laps, and always in the following order of exchanges:
      Woman-Woman-Man-Man. The racing order per Gender is left to the Team.
   o) In case of a fall, only a Skater from the same gender can cover the relay for
      the Team, except in the very last corner before a scheduled exchange 52 to
      the other gender, a Skater from opposite gender can take the relay and keep
      on going.
   p) In exceptional cases when a Team cannot make an exchange because of
      actions from other Teams, the exchanges can be made half a lap later.
   q) In the last two laps of the race, if there is a fall any Team member can take
      the relay.

Relay Infringements:

   a) The individual racing rules, paragraphs 1 and 2, shall apply to Relay races, that
      is to say for all members of the Team, both participating and relayed Team
      members;
   b) Breaches of the relay racing rules are considered as follows:
   - RELAYING NON TOUCH: The relay has taken place without a touch or that
      the touch has not been obvious, clearly shown, and seen by the Referee or
      Assistant Referees;
   - RELAYING DURING THE LAST TWO (2) LAPS: The last relay has not been
      clearly started before the commencement of the final two (2) laps.
   - - In Mixed Team Relay: The relaying order and planned schedule as described
      in paragraph 3 has not been followed.

Team Racing Rules

a) A Team consists of a minimum of 2 Skaters.
b) The finish position and time recorded by the last Skater of the Team finishing
determines the result of the Team.
c) The Skaters shall compete as a Team and may assist each other.

                                          6
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

d) A Skater may push a member of the same Team as long as this does not impede
any Skater from another Team.

Team Racing Infringements

The Individual Racing Rules (paragraphs 1 and 2) shall apply to Team
Racing Rules, unless otherwise specified.

Sanction for Infringements of the Racing Rules or the ISU Code of Ethics

   a) The term “disqualification” as used in Rule 123 paragraph 4.B shall be
      understood to describe the various sanctions mentioned in this Rule
      including without limitation the following type of sanctions:
      Penalty; - for an infringement of the Racing Rules.

Yellow Card; -
   - for an unsafe, harmful or hazardous offence;
   - for more than one infringements of the Racing Rule “Impeding” and/or
      “Kicking Out" independent of each other resulting in a penalty, made in
      one (1) race;
   - for other actions explicitly so specified in these rules.

Red Card:
  - for an infringement of the Racing Rules which is deemed to be dangerous
     or grossly negligent;
  - in the case a Skater is shown two (2) Yellow Cards in the same Competition;
  - for other actions explicitly so specified in these rules;
  - for a violation of the ISU Code of Ethics, which happens in the period
     between the appearance of a Skater at the Heat Box In and leaving the
     Heat Box Out after a race;
  - for any action and behavior, either on or off ice during the competition
     period, i.e. the beginning and the end of a competition as established by
     the ruling body of the competition, and which action is considered by the
     Referee as a non-compliance with instructions of an official in charge, or a
     violation of the ISU Code of Ethics.

   b) The Skater/Relay Team who received a Penalty will be disqualified in the
      relevant race in which the infringement occurred, and will be excluded from
      participating in the next round of the distance/competition concerned. With
      the exception of Final A, where Rule 295, paragraph 6.b) applies, the
      Skater/Relay Team will forfeit the points/result accrued in that race alone.
      Points/results accrued prior to that race will not be affected.

   c) The Skater/Relay Team who was been given a Yellow Card will be disqualified
      in the relevant race in which the infringement occurred and excluded from
      participating in the next round of the distance/competition concerned. The
      Skater/Relay Team will forfeit prior points/results accrued in all races over the
      distance/competition concerned. The right of the Skater to participate in
      other distances/competitions, or the results achieved in previous or next
      other distances/competitions are not affected.

                                          7
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

   d) If a Yellow Card to a Relay Team is directly given because of the action of one
      Skater or is the result of 2 cumulative Penalties to the same Skater, that
      Yellow Card becomes cumulative for that particular Skater, and only that
      Skater. If a Yellow Card is given for a cumulative of 2 Penalties given to 2
      different Skaters from a team, the Yellow Card is not cumulative.

   e) The Skater who was given a Red Card will not be allowed anymore to
      participate in any race, both Individual and Relay, and will not be ranked in
      the final individual classification. The results of other individual distances
      which have been concluded by the same Skater with a Final are not affected.
      55

   f) The Relay Team who was given a Red Card will be disqualified in the relevant
      race and will not be ranked in the final Relay classification. The respective
      Skater of the team who was given a Red Card will not be allowed anymore
      to participate in any race, both Individual and Relay, and will not be ranked
      in the final classification of individual distances not yet concluded. The
      results of individual distances which have been concluded prior to the Relay
      race will not be affected.

   g) Any Official or other participant in an ISU activity witnessing a violation of the
      Code of Ethics during the competition period needs to verbally report to the
      Referee. The Referee shall file a written report with the Short Track Speed
      Skating Technical Committee concerning any Skater who is shown a Red
      Card or a Yellow Card. The Short Track Speed Skating Technical Committee
      shall forward this information to the Sports Technical Director who will
      inform the Council.

   h) The Short Track Speed Skating Technical Committee shall create a database
      of all Yellow and Red Cards issued during a skating season.

   i)   Irrespective of the Red Card decision of the Referee, any Skater falls under
        the disciplinary authority of the Disciplinary Commission at any given
        moment and is subject to a sanction imposed by the DC.

   j)   If a Skater has accumulated two (2) Red Cards within 12 months, that Skater
        shall be automatically suspended from participation in all ISU Events, the
        Olympic Winter Games, the Youth Olympic Winter Games, and International
        Competitions for at least two (2) months or three (3) applicable competitions
        whichever is the longer period.

   k) The Referee’s decision that: there was an infringement of the Racing Rules
      or a violation of the ISU Code of Ethics or decisions approving the
      announcement of the results showing that there was no infringement are
      final and no protests against such decisions are allowed (See Rule 123
      paragraph 4.B);

   l)   If, during a race, any irregularity that may affect the result does take place,
        the Referee may stop the race and order a re-start of the race. As a principle,
        this re-start shall take place immediately. In exceptional cases the Referee
        may postpone the restart to a later point on the competition program
        following Rule 290 paragraph 5 a. If the distance has been completed the

                                           8
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

      Referee may order a re-run of the race considering the rest time according
      to Rule 295 paragraph 2.

   m) If any of the Skaters/Relay Teams have been sanctioned under this Rule for
      conduct occurring before the race is stopped, such Skater(s), and the
      Skater’s Relay Team (if the race is a Relay race), will not take part in the re-
      run;

   n) In the case of a re-start of a Relay race substitution within each team is
      allowed.

   o) Any Skater, for whom the race has been stopped (to preserve the Skater’s
      well-being), will not be allowed to take part in the re-start, unless the Skater
      was unable to continue due to reasons beyond his control. This does not
      apply to the starting procedure. The results of Skater(s) excluded for this
      reason from a re-start will show ‘Did not finish’ (Record as DNF). This also
      applies to Relay Teams. If the Skater is injured resulting from an action by
      another Skater for which a penalty is given, the Referee may advance the
      injured Skater or let the Skater participate in the re-start or re-run.

   p) Sanctions imposed by the Referee under this Rule are communicated and
      recorded at the end of each race. The recorded decision is the final decision
      and cannot be changed unless there is a recording, technical, data or
      communication error. The corrections have to be made before the next
      qualifying round. Any correction must be officially announced and
      documented. Sanctions are announced at the end of each race before the
      announcement of the official results, to the Skater(s) / Team Coach or Team
      leader, and over the public address system for the benefit of the spectators,
      specifying where and how the Skater(s)/Relay Team concerned made an
      infringement and whether there is an advancement. The Announcer must
      inform the spectators immediately of the decision(s) that has been taken.
      With approval of the Technical Committee the Referee may also announce
      the decision over the public address system.

If the public address system can be understood loud and clear at the Coaches
Box, or the information is immediately available on a screen or any other
communication device, there is no need for any On Ice Official to go to the
Coaches Box to announce the decision(s).

In the case of a violation of the ISU Code of Ethics, either on or off the ice, within
the competition period, the sanction may be announced also at a later stage and
the consequences as indicated above will apply.
World Cup Competitions

During the Olympic season the ISU World Cup Short Track Speed Skating Series
season is comprised of four international events. The competitions have a single
distance character and are held in separate sessions. The first and second days are
dedicated to all
Qualifying Rounds. On the third and fourth days the last Qualifying Rounds (if
necessary) are taking place preceding the World Cup session that day.

                                           9
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

On the distances 500, 1000 and 1500 meters there are A and B Finals. Skaters
qualify
for A and B Finals only through the Semi-Finals.
Relay Teams consist of four or six Skaters, which are all considered as participants.
During any Relay race in a competition, a maximum of four Skaters shall compete.
Entries of Teams with less than four or more than six Skaters are not accepted. All
Skaters of a team must belong to the same ISU Member.

Considering the pandemic developments and related impact on the organizers
and participants of ISU Events, the 2020/21 ISU World Cup Short Track Speed
Skating Series were cancelled.

Classifications at each World Cup Competition
   •   The Distance Classifications over the Individual Distances 500, 1000 and 1500
       meters and the Relay distances will follow the Rules for Distance
       Classifications (see Rule 295). The classification of Competitors (individual
       Skaters or Teams) will be based on the results by Blocks in the following
       order: Final A, Final B, Semi-Finalists, Quarter-Finalists (500m, 1000m),
       Special Ranking Finals, other qualifying rounds.
   •   First to be listed will be Competitors who have qualified for the World Cup
       Session in accordance with Rule 295, using the results of the respective Block
       of the World Cup Session
           o Any persisting tie between Competitors qualified for the World Cup
               Session will be broken according to the results of those Competitors
               in the Qualifying Session.
           o Any Competitor who received a penalty, did not start, or failed to finish
               in the first round of the World Cup Session will be ranked last in this
               Block. If this applies to more than one Competitor, they will be ranked
               according to their results in the Qualifying Session.
   •   Then the remaining Competitors who have participated in the Special
       Ranking Final Session will be ranked in accordance with Rule 295, using the
       results of the Special Ranking Final Session.
           o Each Race of the Ranking Final Session will be considered as a Block,
               so that any Competitor who was given a penalty, did not start or failed
               to finish in the Special Ranking Final Session will be ranked last in the
               Race they were scheduled to participate in. If this applies to more than
               one Competitor, they will be ranked according to their results in the
               Qualifying Session.
           o Any persisting tie will be broken according to the results of the
               Competitors concerned in the Qualifying Session.
   •   Any remaining Competitors will be ranked in accordance with Rule 295,
       using the results in the Qualifying Session.
           o Any Competitor who did not finish, received a penalty or was shown a
               yellow card (Rule 297, paragraph 7) in the first round of the Qualifying
               Session will be listed thereafter, in accordance with Rule 295.
   •   Competitors who have been entered but did not participate, due to
       whatever reason, will not be listed. 11.

Points scoring
   a) The points scoring for each of the above Distance Classifications (see
      paragraph 8) at the ISU World Cup Competitions is as follows:

                                           10
ISU Short Track Speed Skating Media Guide

   b) Points are awarded only if ranked on the respective classification of that
      Competition.
