Calling all candidates for UIPM Masters Committee election

The resurgence of the UIPM Masters movement has continued with a call for National Federations to nominate candidates to the UIPM Masters Committee.

Five members from five nations will be elected to the new Committee during the UIPM 2024 Masters World Championships in Gyomro (HUN) from September 13-16, and nominations must be sent to UIPM by 15 June.

The confirmation that Masters pentathletes will have the right to vote for a new representative body follows a successful revival in the past six months, beginning with the 2023 Open European Championships in Chisinau (MDA) and followed by competitions in Davos (SUI) and Bompas (FRA).

The latter competition was the first UIPM-recognised Masters event to include the new Obstacle discipline that will be fully integrated to Modern Pentathlon from 2025.

Only the Masters athletes competing in Gyomro (HUN) in September will be able to vote in the Masters Committee election, which will be held according to the UIPM Rules on Internal Organization, UIPM Election Rules and UIPM Masters Rules. This includes the provision that there must be at least two female and two male athletes on the UIPM Masters Committee.
