With teams eager for a chance to compete and spectators enthusiastic to watch the thrilling scaffolding events planned out, the competition has become a must-attend event on the industry calendar.

“As the competition continues to evolve and attract a diverse range of talent, it’s essential that we adapt to meet the needs of our participants and audience,” explained Oleg Abramov, Head of Operations at ScaffChamp.

“Expanding the team limit not only ensures a more inclusive competition but also reinforces our commitment to fostering innovation, safety, and excellence within the scaffolding industry.”
