* After further consultation it has been decided seeding at National Championships for most categories will be determined via results obtained from XCC racing. This affords the opportunity to maximise official practice opportunities and athlete recovery/preparation time.

For Elite/UCI categories a TT involving a a warm up lap and hot lap of the XCC course will determine seeding. Categories with fields of 8 or less will not be seeded.

2020 National Champion and UCI points holder seeding positions will remain honored. Amended schedule and details to follow soon.
