Winners will receive a sponsorship package from the BBC.

Open division £500

The sponsorship will come in the form of support to compete at an IBA/ISA/ESF international event.

Notes for competitors:

1.  All events will have Open, DK & Women’s divisions.  The Porthtowan event will also host the British Nationals age divisions.

2.  All events will score a maximum of 500 ranking points; see the BBC website for full points score details.
