Congress rota for hosting the Yorkshire Individual Championship

It is current practice to embed the Yorkshire Individual Championship in one of the local weekend congresses (subject to the organisers’ agreement), awarding the title to the highest placed eligible player in the Open section. The cycle determined for 2018 onwards, subject to possible later revision if, for instance, a congress folded, or a new one arose, is:

2018 Scarborough

2019 Huddersfield

2020 Sheffield

2021 Doncaster

2022 Bradford

2023 Leeds

2024 Hull

The 2017 Yorkshire Championship was awarded to Hull (27^th-29^th October).
