Senior & Veterans Open '26
Registration is now closed
The waiting list is now open for registration. Being on the waiting list is not a completed entry until payment is made.
What happens now?
- We sort through entries
- We contact people where there are 2 or fewer in a group
- We contact people where there may be a quirk in data (eg grade & category don't align)
- We contact folk who don't have payment recorded
ONLY AFTER all that is done will we look at options for taking people from the waiting list.
If you are not contacted about numbers then there are at least 3 in your category/weight group.
If you have not paid, you are NOT entered.
Registering for the waiting list is NOT a completed entry to the competition until payment is collected - which must be done in advance.
There will be NO payment on the day (including those on waiting list)
There will be NO entry on the day for those not fully registered
Registration
Competitors wishing to enter a category which is different to their gender assigned at birth are requested to contact
Travel
Please note parking at the venue is very limited.
We'd recommend using trains or if driving use the York park and ride to get into town (Park & Ride £4 vs more like £15-20 parking in town!). The park & ride buses stop at the rail station on one side of venue and Blossom Street the other side.
Venue is next to train station (2 minute walk) from train station.
