The Junior British Inter-Counties Hill and Fell Championships are organised by the FRA on behalf of the UK Counties Athletics Union. As an Inter-Counties competition they follow the UKA 'Rules for Competition', including the criteria for eligibility for a county or region. The Senior competition is organised by the Mountain Running Advisory Group (MRAG) of British Athletics.
The Inter-Counties has it's own website, giving information on both the Junior and Senior competitions. In particular the rules applying to the Junior event can be found on that site at this link. In particular please note that county vests MUST be worn to be eligible for the Inter-Counties competition. (When the event is held in conjunction with a Junior English Championship event the County vest should be worn, rather than the club vest).
