- Under-13 Boys and Girls (must be aged 12 on 31 August 2022, or at least 11 years old on the day of the event)
- Under-15 Boys and Girls (must be aged 14 or 15 on 31 August 2022)
- Under-17 Boys and Girls (must be aged 15 or 16 on 31 August 2022)
Each London borough can have a maximum of 6 boys and 6 girls in each age group.
