Events
Youth events at Mallory Park Road Race League are run on Tuesday evenings from mid-April to mid-August. There are races for 5 age groups each evening, U8, U10, U12, U14 and U16. Additionally results are given separately for boys and girls
Riders score points in each race as follows
- Scratch Race, our basic race with 8,6,4,3,2 and 1 points for the first 6 riders at the finish
- Time Trial – For U10/12 and U14/16, a chance to have a go at a longer time trial in a safe environment. U10/12 riders will be on the lower (flat) circuit, whilst U14/16 riders will be on the full circuit featuring the climb up to Gerrards. Same points tariff as Scratch Race. Ideal preparation for the Assen Youth Tour.
- Double League points for 3 events
Note that BC points are only available for U14 and U16 riders, in line with BC policy
All events, with the exception of the last event, are run under British Cycling rules and may be seen on the BC website by clicking on the link in the sidebar.

Circuits
2021 circuits
The Mallory circuit can be configured in a number of different ways to give some variety to race nights. Full details are below. Circuits for each race night are indicated in the seasons race programme| Circuit | Description |
|---|---|
 | Full Anti ClockwiseFull circuit, anti-clockwise but with the finish on the main straight just after the bridge. Makes for a classic battle between the sprinters and those riders who need to get clear before the finish line. Used occasionally for the older Youth riders (U14/16) giving them a chance to race on the full circuit including the climb to the Bus Stop chicane and Mallory's iconic Shaw's Hairpin |
 | Hilltop FinishThe Hilltop Finish circuit is one of the favourites, racing taking place on the flat circuit anti-clockwise before pealing off on the last lap to finish at the top of the hill by the famous Bus Stop chicane |
 | Hilly CritThe Hilly Crit circuit is just that, a tough hilly, twisty course. Its a circuit you either love or hate but it always produces a worthy winner! |
 | Lower Anti ClockwiseArguably the hardest of the two flat circuit variations, when run anti-clockwise we have a 400m uphill drag from the last bend to the finish |
 | Lower ClockwiseUsing the flat lower circuit and finishing on the main straight, this circuit features a slightly downhill finish making for fast, exciting sprints |
