When instructed to do so by the Promoter the Entrant must place their plate on the grass surface within the defined perimeter and weigh it down with the sand bag supplied. Plate positioning should take no more than 10 minutes. Entrants must then return behind the barrier when instructed to do so by the Promoter before the Leprechaun Launch will take place. Any plates placed outside the barrier that defines the perimeter of the event will be deemed invalid and will not be eligible to win the prize money.

6.   Entrants are encouraged to place plates down in an orderly manner to avoid jostling or collision with other Entrants. Entrants must not touch, move, walk on or kick any other entrant’s plate. Please be courteous and mindful of others.
