There are so few Trail-O events in UK with a max of 5 events per year: 2 days at JK, BTOC and the 2 Irish champs. This year with the JK in Ireland there hasn't been any announcement of when the Irish champs will be.
These events are all used for selection purposes based on the British Trail-O ranking list. This ranking list will be published soon, hopefully before the JK. How it will be used to select the team has been published on the BOF website.
Fighting for places will be tough, I missed the Irish last year because I was "stuck" in Sweden due to the Ash Cloud so after this year's JK and British I will have to count my top 4 results from only 6 events. The pressure will be on at JK! What makes it extra tough is the new rules regarding Paralympic class for Trail-O and some of the recent British Para team could well be ruled to be Open from now on - so more people vying for the same places.
