CHILDREN'S DIVISION
A child may enter any class for which they are eligible, i.e. an 8 year old may enter the Minor, Junior or Teen category. However, children are limited to winning 3 gold awards in any one class. Once 3 gold awards have been achieved in one category, the child must then move up to the next level if they wish to continue competing. Any child winning 3 gold awards in the Teens class may then enter the Novice class at adult level. All Groups are up to and including age shown at the date of the competition.

If you are considering entering, please talk to your leaders or contact Gillian via this web site
to ensure that you really understand what the instructions are asking you to do.
