For each of their events, the organiser receives a pre-filled form in PDF
containing specific information about the event as it appears on the draft
calendar (available hereunder in this document). The organiser can make any
necessary changes directly in the pre-filled PDF file. It must then be sent by
email to the National Federation for approval.
In the event of any name change, the organiser must mention the name
requested in the box provided.
The draft calendars are included here under for information only. Appearing
on a draft calendar does not mean that the race is registered on the UCI
calendar. Organisers must confirm the registration of their race by returning
the required registration form to their National Federation.
Any requests for a change of date may be submitted to the UCI via National
Federations. A justification letter must accompany with these requests.
If necessary, the UCI reserves the right to change the dates in order to avoid
any competition between races which may be unfavourable to cycling.
For registration of new events, extra forms can be obtained from the National
Federation. Hyperlinks to blank registration forms for each of the disciplines
can be found in the corresponding sections of this document. In accordance
with the regulations, when registering a new race a file must be submitted
(Article 1.2.009 hereafter). For road, this must reach the UCI at the latest on
25th June (3 months prior to the Management Committee meeting) of the year
before the first edition of the race, and for other disciplines at the latest on the
same registration deadline set in Article 1.2.006. Nonetheless, the organiser
is obliged to announce beforehand its intention to enter a new race to its
National Federation who will send the organiser a blank registration form
to fill in and return to their National Federation.
The first time a race is submitted for inclusion on the international
calendar, the organiser shall submit documentation including at
- type of race (discipline, speciality, format);
- description of the course including total length (in km) and,
where applicable, that of stages and circuits;
- the type and number of participating teams and/or riders’
categories wanted;
- financial aspects (prizes, travel and subsistence expenses);
- references concerning organisation.
For the road, the documentation must be submitted to the UCI no
later than three months before the meeting of the Management
Committee at which the calendar in question finalised (in general,
June 25th). For the other disciplines, the documentation must
be submitted to the UCI at the latest on the same registration
deadline settled in Article 1.2.006 for the other disciplines.

amounts are described in the UCI Financial Obligations.

calendar shall be subject to the payment of a fee, called the calendar fee, the
amount of which shall be set annually by the UCI Management Committee.
This fee includes allowances (expenses and travel) for officials (International
Commissaires and Doping Control Officers) appointed by the UCI and
enrolment fee for each race on the international calendar. The accommodation
expenses (room + breakfast) remain payable by each organiser. The total
amount of these fees must be paid in Euros, within the deadlines described
in the Article 1.2.012.
An invoice will be sent to organisers once the calendar is approved by the
UCI Management Committee.
The total amount of the fee must be paid by the organiser to the UCI no
later than two months after the meeting of the Management Committee
at which the calendar for the discipline in question is approved. The above
deadline refers to the date on which the UCI account must be credited
(Article 1.2.012).
Only races that respect Article 1.2.012 of the UCI regulations will be
registered on the calendar.
In case of delay, a penalty of 100 Swiss Francs for each month started will

question is approved. Furthermore, a race registration shall be refused if the
enrolment fees for previous races have not been paid or if the organiser does
not honour its financial obligations with the UCI. This measure also applies

INTERNATIONAL TRACK CALENDARS

as per the scale stated in the UCI regulations (Title 3, Chapter III).
As a reminder, it is possible to specify on the registration form the type of class
(CC, CL1, CL2, Nat) for each specialisation. The races at a national level (Nat.)
can be registered as a complement to the UCI competitions.
The evaluation of the competitions registered in the 2018-2019 calendar
determines the class in which they will be registered for 2019-2020 season (as
per art. 3.8.003).
Any event for which points counting for the UCI Track Classification are
awarded will need to respect the formats and/or minimal distances as
stipulated in the UCI Regulations, failing this, points will not be awarded.
With regard to the minimum criteria for categories, if several categories
participate in the same race, the category of the majority of participants will
be taken into account only.
Younger athletes or masters can participate in elite races to expand the bunch.
Nevertheless, riders younger than 18 years old will not score UCI points and
must not be taken into account in the analysis of the minimum number of
participating nations (article 3.8.003). 18-year-olds junior riders will score UCI
points in elite ranking. In any case, all athletes must be included in the results.
For the registration of Six Days type of event, the registered event shall be
Madison (for example Men Elite Madison); each indidivudal event of that
category shall not be registered.
For others tournament, different from the format as regulated by the UCI, (for
example Sprinter’s tournament on several days) as stipulated in art. 3.3.005,
points will be awarded according to the overall standings of the speciality
(for example individual sprint). If the tournament is made of several events
(Sprint and Keirin), the event which will award the UCI points shall be clearly
identified on the program of the competition and communicated to the UCI
Track Department (track@uci.ch).
We remind that as per art. 3.3.003, if more than 50% of the riders per category
are being invited, the awarded points will be of Class 2 points scale.
For your information, please find hereafter two examples to illustrate how
criteria are taken into account to classify an event.
