ATHLETE INJURY and SUBSTITUTES during the event - In the case of an athlete sustaining an injury or being unable to compete on the day, their team will unfortunately be automatically disqualified. It is not permissible to substitute another athlete in their place. However, if a team wishes to continue with a substitute athlete solely for the purpose of completing the day, that is acceptable. It is important to note, though, that the score for the events in which the substitute participates will still be recorded as zero.
