To ensure the ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ป๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ for our competitors, backstage passes will be available to purchase at the upcoming contests.
This pass allows ๐ข๐ก๐ ๐ฐ๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป to accompany their athlete backstage โ whether thatโs a ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต, ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐๐ป๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป.
The reason for this change is simple:
When backstage becomes ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฑ, it affects ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฐ๐๐, ๐ณ๐น๐ผ๐, ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ and ultimately the ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒโ๐ ๐ฒ๐
๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ. This isnโt fair on those preparing to step on stage at their ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐๐ผ๐น๐๐๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐.
By limiting numbers, we are creating:
โ
๐ ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐
โ
๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป

โ
๐ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ
Most federations donโt allow backstage access at all, and those that do often charge a ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฒ, so this is about keeping things ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฟ, ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ, and still ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ while ensuring the space remains ๐ณ๐๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ.
My goal is to make this the ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ for competitors โ giving them the ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ while still allowing their chosen support person to be part of that journey.
