Categories
Youth D, C, B, A, and Junior
Adult (non-youth)
Senior
Youth A, Junior and Adult athletes should register in their individual categories. These athletes will be automatically registered in the combined Senior category.
Although we did not run a Senior category at the Qualifier, we will be doing so at Provincials in order to qualify athletes for Nationals.
Format
Youth D & C athletes will climb the CEC Official Youth C/D Speed Route (see Page 10 of 2021-2022 CEC Rules Amendments).
Youth A, Junior and Adult athletes will compete in a single Qualification Round. These results will be used to rank athletes in their individual category (Youth A, Junior, and Adult) as well as in the combined Senior category. If an athlete qualifies for the Final Rounds in more than one category (for example, a Youth A athlete qualifies in both Youth A and Senior), the athlete will compete in separate finals for each category.
