ScaffFest team registration opens on 26 October
Team registration for ScaffFest 2027 opens on Monday 26 October 2026 at 10:00 AM UK time. Teams can apply to compete in Ringlock and Tube & fitting, with separate adult and apprentice (U23) categories, at NAEC Stoneleigh, UK, from 23–25 July 2027.
Each adult category has 20 team places, while each U23 category has 10. Every team follows the same structure: one captain and five scaffolders. In the apprentice categories, all six members, including the captain, must be under 23 on competition day.
The adult championships take place on 24–25 July, with an opening round followed by semi-finals and a final. Both apprentice categories compete on Friday 23 July in a single timed round. Safe working and build compliance matter alongside speed, with penalties affecting the results.
When registration opens, choose your category on the team registration page, complete its application form and accept the category’s terms and conditions. Applications are reviewed by the organising team; submitting a form does not confirm a competition place.
