Championship identity Establishes what belongs to the European championship series and which edition a record describes.
Series boundary
Separates this registry concept from adjacent pentathlon competitions.
Senior-series designation
Use senior European pentathlon as the provisional boundary; UIPM explicitly labels its 2026 event European Senior Championships. Historical equivalence still requires research. [UIPM event record](https://www.uipmworld.org/event/2026-european-senior-championships)
- Which authoritative designation establishes that an event belongs to this series? provenance
- Does the registry intend only senior championships or a wider family of European pentathlon championships? boundary
Edition continuity
Tracks editions despite changes of dates, host, name or competition format.
Edition membership
Record an edition's official identity and its connection to the series without inferring annual recurrence or treating every session as a separate championship.
- Which official calendar or archive establishes this edition's dates, host and series membership? provenance
- Is a changed event record a rescheduled edition, a replacement event or a distinct championship? boundary
European entry and representation Captures who may enter, represent a federation and compete for European titles.
Participation entitlement
Connects athletes and delegations to the conditions governing an edition.
Participation versus title eligibility
Assess permission to start and eligibility for championship awards separately, recording any edition-specific restrictions or exceptions.
- Which rules establish federation affiliation, athlete eligibility and any exceptional participation status? provenance
- Does permission to compete also establish eligibility for individual, team and relay titles? boundary
Delegation entry
Determines whether proposed federation entries satisfy the championship invitation.
Entry acceptance
Attach quotas, deadlines, nomination procedures and substitution conditions to the edition that issued them.
- What athlete and relay limits apply to each federation and category in this edition? measurement
- What must the responsible federation submit or correct before an entry or substitution can be accepted? action
Pentathlon programme and rules Defines the contests offered and the pentathlon format applicable to each.
Title programme
Identifies actual medal classifications and how each is contested.
Individual, team and relay distinction
Determine separately whether a title uses individual performance, an aggregation of athletes' results or a relay contest; do not infer an offered event from a generic results-page tab.
- Which individual, team and relay titles were actually offered and awarded in this edition? provenance
- How are team members selected and their performances combined for each team classification? definition
Discipline regime
Binds discipline composition and scoring to their effective rules.
Format-specific performance
Record the actual discipline regime rather than assuming a timeless format. The 2026 official results contain fencing, obstacle, swimming and Laser Run components. [UIPM results](https://www.uipmworld.org/event/2026-european-senior-championships)
- Which discipline composition, fencing format and running-shooting arrangement applied to this edition and round? definition
- Which scoring tables and penalties converted the measured performances into championship points? measurement
- Which format changes make a proposed comparison with another edition misleading? boundary
Competition progression and delivery Connects qualification rounds, discipline sessions and operational decisions to a valid championship contest.
Round progression
Explains how competitors move through the edition's competition stages.
Advancement and start order
Record the actual round structure, advancement criteria, score carry-over and any handicap start conversion without assuming they remain identical across editions.
- Which places, scores or tie-breaks determine advancement from each qualifying stage? definition
- How do earlier discipline performances determine later start order or time handicaps? measurement
Discipline session readiness
Assesses whether championship sessions can proceed under the approved format.
Session approval and disruption
Connect fencing, swimming, obstacle or historical riding, and running-shooting sessions to their venues, required checks and authorised responses to disruption.
- Which documented approvals establish that the applicable courses, equipment and discipline sessions are ready? provenance
- Who may delay, relocate, restart or cancel a discipline session, and what happens to affected performances? action
Results, titles and consequences Establishes authoritative championship outcomes and their effects beyond the edition.
Classification and adjudication
Traces title claims to official classifications and subsequent decisions.
Authoritative title outcome
Preserve discipline results, penalties, classification status and decision history so that provisional leaders are not prematurely recorded as champions.
- Which official classification establishes the medal recipients for this specific championship contest? provenance
- Which protests, disqualifications or later decisions require a title or medal record to be revised? action
Ranking and qualification effects
Links championship results to separately governed ranking and qualification systems.
Conditional external entitlements
Treat ranking points and Olympic or other qualification effects as edition- and cycle-specific consequences requiring their own authoritative basis.
- Which published scheme assigns ranking points or qualification opportunities to this edition? provenance
- Does an outcome benefit the athlete, federation or national Olympic committee, and what acceptance or reallocation steps remain? action

What it is Filled
The European Modern Pentathlon Championships are a recurring continental championship series in which modern pentathletes representing European nations compete for European titles under international modern pentathlon rules.
In scope
- Championship-series identity, edition membership and historical continuity
- European championship eligibility, federation entries and title eligibility
- Edition-specific medal programme, discipline format and competition progression
- Discipline performance, scoring, penalties and official classifications
- Championship delivery, adjudication and documented qualification consequences
Out of scope
- Modern pentathlon as a sport and its complete general rulebook
- Separate junior, youth, masters and para championship series unless registry research establishes inclusion

Why it exists Filled
Enable an agent to recognise editions of the European Modern Pentathlon Championships, interpret their competition state and results under the applicable rules, and identify justified participation or qualification actions.
Distinguishing features Filled
- An authoritative designation establishes European championship status; taking place in Europe alone is insufficient.
- The event belongs to the modern pentathlon championship series rather than a championship for one component discipline.
- Senior-series membership must be established explicitly when a source uses the shortened label European Championships.
- An edition is distinguished from its individual contests, qualifying rounds and medal classifications.
- Series identity can persist across discipline and scoring reforms; an identical programme across all editions is not required.
