All other persons must stay outside in the areas assigned to them by the Organising Committee. Coaches may accompany their athletes during the warm-up period in the specified zones; when the warm-up is finished they can watch the competition in their specific designated area, outside but close to a point of access. 1.22 OBLIGATIONS of Athletes, Officials, NFs and Their Members, LOCs and Members of LOCs 1.22.1 Declarations Pentathletes as well as team officials and members of the LOC of a UIPM competition are obliged to follow the UIPM Statutes and UIPM Rules and to respect the principles of fair play. 46
