PAST WINNERS – CLASS B
1967 – present
Class B has always been aimed at younger individuals than Class A. To win this class, a team of four (with three walking each section) has to cover approximately 55 miles in the fastest time. It is a very tough Class to win.
Until 2000, all team members had to be under 17½. This was raised to 18 thereafter to fit in with revisions to the Scout Association’s Policy, Organisation and Rules document. The rest of the Class B format has remained unchanged since 1967.
