The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) is pleased to announce the introduction of a new Women’s Under-23 category for the UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships.

In compliance with the announcement made on January 30 this year, the members of the UCI Management Committee, who met in Aigle last week, approved the modifications to the UCI Regulations for cyclo-cross, introducing a new Women’s Under-23 (17-22) category with effect from the 2016 UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships in Heusden-Zolder (Belgium).

This new category will also apply to Continental Championships and – for the National Federations who wish to follow suit – to National Championships.
