Should the event be oversubscribed BUCS will reserve the right to limit the number of competitors based on the number of universities who have entered. Please ensure you submit entries in all competitions in order of preference. Institutions can submit a maximum of 25 non-guaranteed entries. This means that when submitting entries, institution administrators should rank competitors in order of preference (e.g 1, 2, 3, 4). 

Rules for Levels and Symbol sheets can be found in the ‘Levels’ section

All institutions must bring a qualified coach to the competition, as per regulation GYM 5: 

GYM 5 Coaches Each institution/Playing Entity is required to bring to the Championships an appropriately qualified coach, or coaches, who will take responsibility for their gymnast(s) while they are competing. Coaches must be British Gymnastics qualified to a minimum of level 2, with the correct skill set for the competing gymnast(s) for which they are responsible. A gymnast cannot be their own coach.

Final pre-event information including the accepted entries list will be published when entries close.

If you have any questions, please contact your institution administrator in the first instance.

No substitutions will be allowed when entries close.

Competitor withdrawals must be made by a competitor's institutional administrator emailing Harry Spinks, the BUCS Event Coordinator.

Withdrawals before the entry deadline (10 January 2023 at 23:59 [stage one]) will not be charged.

Withdrawals after the entry deadline (10 January 2023 at 23:59 [stage one]) and before 23:59 on the 19 January 2023 will still be charged the entry fee.

Competitors who do not withdraw before 23:59 on the 19 January 2023 and do not attend the competition will be classed as a late withdrawal/no show and therefore will be charged the entry fee. They will also be fined £50 which will be charged after the event, to the competitor’s athletic union.

Should BUCS have to open stage two entries then new deadlines for withdrawals will be published. Reserves will only be charged an entry fee if they are accepted into the competition.

Please see our Withdrawal Policy for more details.
