SECTION 4
For team pursuits, the first members of each team start in opposite directions on either side of the
track at the centre point at the positions ‘
C
’ and ‘
D
’. The pursuit will be over an agreed number of
laps in sections of full or half laps.
Team sizes can be varied. The start is placed at the mid-way point so that baton changing can be
practised, unlike with the shuttle relay format. To cater for additional teams, two, three or four
tracks can be accommodated, placed side by side with a minimum of three metres separating the
lines of cones.
