The IOMA has adopted the following policy for ratifying new records for U12, U14, U16 and U18’s, the new age groups for athletes since April 1st 2026.
All current records for U11,U13,U15 and U17’s are frozen and those record holders in these age groups will technically hold the record forever.
Performances in the new age groups will be assessed at the end of the current track season and records ratified in September 2026.
Indoor performances will similarly be assessed at the end of the indoor season and new records ratified in April 2027.
All records for U20, Seniors and veterans will be ratified as they are currently.
