Event Info 2022
Information for 2022
All our PROVISIONAL dates for 2022 are detailed below. They have been split into two sections: the first being our Club and Centre Trials and the second being our Summer Series Trials which are sponsored once again by Acklams Beta. Acklams do an awful lot to help our club and we are extremely grateful for their continued support.
Don’t forget to get your club membership through the ACU website.
Thank you so much for all your support in 2021, it has been a pleasure to put the events on for you all and we have enjoyed seeing you all at our events. We hope 2022 will be as successful but if there is anything you would like to see us do differently – please do get in touch.
A huge thank you to all the landowners for letting us use their land as without them we wouldn’t be able to hold any of the trials.
A final thank you to all the observers, for standing out in all weathers to ensure the trials can go ahead. You are all amazing and we really do appreciate you being there come rain or shine.
Most of our Summer Series are Saturday Night Trials, all other trials tend to be held on Sundays and will start at either 10:30am or 11:00am. Most of our trials are restricted to club but we do have some open trials throughout the year along with Centre Restricted trials.
We are very excited to be hosting the British Round this summer and will keep you posted with full details of what we have planned.
