Please take the time to distribute these updated Definitions to your Members as their have been some changes to multiple sections as well as the introduction of a new section, Drone/Aerial Photography.

We understand some of our Affiliated Clubs adopt the FCC Competition Definitions for the Club Competitions to ensure images comply for Interclub Competitions. Please read this document carefully, and familiarise yourself with the changes to ensure any images used from previous years still comply with the current Definitions.
