Your season
Your ambition

The UK and Ireland Championships put titles on the line, with athletes and teams racing head-to-head at Lee Valley in London: Solo on Saturday 15 May 2027, Pairs and Relay on Sunday 16 May 2027.

The qualifying period ran from 1 January 2026 to 30 September 2026, inclusive. The places go to UK nationals and people living in the UK. Irish citizens and people living in Ireland qualify too, as extra places on top, so no UK place is ever given up for them. Where you live is read from your race entry form: your country of residence or your postcode.

The qualifier list is final, and everyone on it keeps their place. Extra places can still be added on top of it for athletes it did not have. Races from 1 October 2026 count towards the UK and Ireland Championships 2028.
