Although the total number of nominations is good, there are too few nominations for the MTBO Athletes Advisory Group, and across all 4 disciplines the gender distribution is not satisfactory, with only 4 women among the 23 nominations (17%).
It has therefore been decided to extend the period for nominations until May 15, 2021. Voting for positions in the Athletes Advisory Groups will then begin shortly after that.
