The SCA Championship is a competition run across the main soap box events in Scotland with the aim of encouraging participation in the various events and to creating friendly rivalry between teams.

Registered teams are awarded points for their final position in the participating events, and the team with the greatest number of points after the last event will be crowned as the SCA Champion. There are separate classes for Soapbox Cartie and Gravity Sidecar.

Please note that each race is independantly organised as a separate event. Teams registering for the SCA Championship should also register with each event that they wish to take part in. Registration for the SCA Championship does not include automatic entry into competing events, nor does it confer any special privileges. Since each event is an independant entity, the rules for each competition vary slightly. Please check with each event organiser to ensure your cartie or sidecar is eligible to compete.

Further information;

Scottish Carties will be organising an annual championship competition in 2010 to run across the main soapbox events in Scotland.

Registered teams will be awarded points for their position in the participating events, and the team with the greatest number of points after the last event will be crowned as the SCA Champion.

We are also looking for more events to add to the calendar, or potential venues where we could race. If you know of an event that would be interested in hosting an SCA Championship round or a hill that is crying out for a cartie race, please do get in touch.
