Youth D, E and F will also have a group race (a scratch race) in their respective age categories. Riders in the Youth A, B and C categories will also take part in two shorter group races; an elimination race and a scratch race, again in their respective age categories - although as is often the case Youth A and B may be combined with results teased apart - league points will awarded based on the combined result of the two races i.e. despite there being two group races the same points are available as in every other round of the league.
