It is a joke that something like this could happen at any level.

Same thing nearly happened at World Indoors in Fuluoka in 1999. However coaches were not prevented from checking the facilities and it became clear to us that the stands were not calibrated. After some urging the officials made the necessary changes.

That is why on page 119 of B2B I suggest that wherever possible coaches - and now I would suggest the athletes - always check the stqnds , the box and the positioning of the front of the pad against the back of the box. :yes: :idea:
