British Open Series (BOS)
The HG Comps Panel will run 3 events in 2025.

The British Open (for Class 1) will run alongside the first round, weather permitting.
All hang glider pilots are welcome at the BOS. The BOS events will include full-on racing for experienced XC pilots, and an integrated Pilot Development Pathway (PDP) to enable pilot development, from newcomers all the way up to the elite level of British team members.
Class 1 Sport ("Sports Class") will replace Club Class in the BOS in 2025, aligning the BOS with the FAI standard classes.
Depending on entries, one or more of the competitions may be FAI Category 2 status, allowing participants to earn WPRS points in all three classes. This will be confirmed a month or so before each event.
Further details, including information about campsite booking, the flexible pricing structure, a coordinated retrieve system and the new Pilot Development Pathway, will follow early in the new year.
