In the aftermath of the inaugural Deutchland Centurion Walk,
held in Bochum, Germany, on the weekend of 1-2 October 2022,
discussions were held with a view to formalising rules to govern events
wishing to advertise themselves as Centurion qualifiers.
As a result of these dicussions, the Fellowship of International Centurions was setup.
It
comprises a maximum of 10 members with at least one representative of
each current member of the Fellowship. Current members (at 14 October,
2022) are considered to be Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom
(British), United States of America, the Netherlands (Continental).
The formative committee of the Fellowship of International Centurions is (alphabetically):
Richard McChesney (NZL)
Jantinus Meints (NED)
Gijs Den Ouden (NED)
Rob Robertson (USA)
Justin Scholz (AUS)
David Sim (NZL).
This
body now now represents and regulates all rules pertaining to any
future events from new countries wishing to become members of the
Fellowship . The Fellowship ensures each race meets all international
Centurion standards.
The Fellowship maintains 3 documents which are reproduced here for completeness.
