Birmingham GaLA RESULTS AMENDED
These are amended
results due to the changes made to
the competition structure after the
Birmingham Gala. All Galas
will now include the above age
groups. All competitors who
finish in the bottom 25% will now be
on a caution and if they finish in
the middle (ie. Not in relegation or
promotion zone) they will go back to
0. If they finish in the
relegation zone again they will then
have to move to the lower grade.
