There is no requirement that Skills Challenge fields have the same set of consistent modifications as the Head-to-Head fields. For example, there is no requirement that all Skills Challenge fields are elevated to the same height as Head-to-Head fields. However, all Skills Challenge fields at a single event must use the same type of field control and field perimeter, as described in rules <T22> and <T23>. It is strongly recommended / preferred that all Skills Challenge fields are consistent with each other, but this may not be possible in extreme circumstances. In order to use non-conforming Head-to-Head fields for Skills Challenge runs (e.g., during lunch), the following steps should be taken:
  • Teams must be informed that the Head-to-Head Fields may have some differences from the Skills Challenge Fields (e.g., they might not have the GPS strips)
  • Teams must be given an option to select which type of Field they want to use, i.e. they cannot be required to use the Head-to-Head Field for any Skills Challenge run
