Following a request from the Porto Alegre LOC for an extension for the submission of entries the Vice Presidents (Stadia and Non Stadia) have agreed that the entry closing date be extended to 27 August 2013. Several others were also consulted and agree with this date. The extension is the result of disruptions caused by the need to close down the website from time to time for updating and amendments. WMA has advised this extension will not create any unforeseen problems for the preparation of entry data and various competition booklets that is so essential.
