    Chainsaw Competitions

    British Chainsaw Championship

      This annual chainsaw competition is open to all chainsaw operators in the UK. The aim of the competition is to promote the accurate, safe use of a chainsaw. This is done through a series of five scoring events:

    1. Tree felling
    2. Bar and chain changing
    3. Combination bucking
    4. Precision bucking
    5. Limbing

    Prizes for the British Championship 2005

    The results of this competition are used to select the team for the World Loggers' Competition which is held every two years in different countries. Competitors' ages range from 18 to 80 with all levels of experience represented from newly qualifies chainsaw operators to highly experienced loggers.
