Junior Grand Prix

The Pendle & Burnley Junior Grand Prix was established in 2016 and is developing from strength-to-strength.

For 2019, the Championship is based on a minimum of 5 of the 9 races, regardless of the terrain discipline, with age categories following the UKA/FRA age groups. 

There will also be a Grand Prix Party & Presentation at the end of the Season.
