European Athletics Regulations
We strongly encourage Member Federations to enter the number of athletes and officials as detailed and precise as possible. European Athletics will strictly follow the following regulations:

The latter applies only if the Preliminary Entry is more than 4 (four).
Note: The team Invoice will be based on the accommodation requests included in the final entries as well as any additional requirements indicated after the closing of the final entries.

Rooming list
Detailed information about athletes and officials’ rooming list will have to be entered by the Member Federations during the Final Entries process.
Further amendments will have to be made through the accommodation module of European Athletics event management system after the closing of the Final entries.
While registering their final entries, Member Federations will be requested to sign a consent form to allow the list of the room numbers for the members of the respective team to be communicated to Sample Collection Officials. Where this information is obtained, it will only be used for the purposes of the blood and urine testing, will be confidentially treated and destroyed once it is no longer required for these purposes.
Meals
Meals will all be served in buffet style and, to the extent possible, will be similar in all hotels. A large selection of suitable food will be available taking into consideration special diets, religion and culture of the participants.
Meals times shall be as follows:
- Breakfast 05:00-09:30
- Lunch 12:30-15:30
- Dinner 20:00-23:30
On the last day, 7 July, dinner will be served until 24:00.
A late serving provision will be made for those athletes retained at the stadium due to doping controls or protests.
For lunch and dinner, water and juice will be available free of charge. All other drinks must be paid for.
Please also note that as Israel is a Jewish state, most hotels and restaurants adhere to Kashrut restrictions, which will somehow affect the menu in the hotels with the following main impact: No meat and dairy products mixed in the same meal (neither allowed to be brought into the restaurants nor served), meaning:
- no meat for breakfast
- no dairy products (such as milk for coffee, etc.) for lunch or dinner
Accreditation cards will allow access to meals. Furthermore, access to restaurants will only be possible at the hotel where they are staying.

Meeting Rooms
