The W1 women’s finals session, which was scheduled to take place in the evening of 31 August, has been delayed until the morning of 1 September 2021.
Competition will start at 9h00 and last for approximately three-and-a-half hours.
The change has been made due to inclement weather approaching the venue at Yumenoshima Park, with a heavy storm and lightning expected in the vicinity of the arena.
No change will be made to the remaining competition sessions as 1 August was initially planned as a free day.
