SAGE, the sports and grounds maintenance outdoor trade show, will host the UK Loggers National Championships. The competition, which showcases the expertise and superb skills of the best loggers from around the country, will be held on July 19 and 20, 2023 at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern, Worcestershire.
The UK Loggers National Championship determines an overall precision chainsaw champion, with the best competitors going on to represent the UK at the World Logging Championships next year. The event consists of five disciplines – cross cutting, felling, limbing, a chain change and a relay race.
Richard Siddons from UK Loggers said: “When we learnt more about SAGE and how it’s all about providing interactive, hands-on experiences and demonstrations, it was clear this would be the ideal place to hold the UK Loggers National Championships.
“Not only is there a huge amount of outside space available for us to hold the contest, we’ll also be surrounded by people who will appreciate the skill and experience of those taking part in the competition. We plan to put on a great show for those watching, who will also hopefully learn a little more about the many different aspects of precision chainsaw competing. And, of course, the champion will also be crowned, as well as the best few chosen to represent the UK next year at a global level.”
SAGE provides an opportunity for networking within the industry and provides opportunities for visitors to meet experts who will provide demonstrations and talks. The latest equipment will also be available for purchase and the outside space allows for customers to ‘try before they buy’.
