ScaffChamp 2025: Dates Confirmed for Vilnius Showdown

ScaffMag can exclusively reveal the official dates for ScaffChamp 2025, promising another thrilling chapter of the international scaffolding championship.

The Baltic Scaffolders Association (BSA), the driving force behind ScaffChamp, has been working tirelessly to ensure that the 2025 edition surpasses expectations for both participants and spectators.

We can reveal that ScaffChamp 2025 will take place on June 6–7, in Vilnius, Lithuania, the longstanding home of this prestigious event.

Team registration for ScaffChamp 2025 is scheduled to open on January 6, 2025. This year, organisers aim to host 20 teams, with spots likely to fill quickly. As in previous years, registration will operate on a first-come, first-served basis, ensuring that early entrants secure their places.

To enhance fairness and transparency in 2025, the organisers have introduced significant changes to the competition’s oversight and judging.

Plans include assigning two referees per team, with a dedicated supervisor overseeing all referees. Additionally, four independent observers will monitor the referees’ work and address any team complaints directly on the field.

Oleg Abramov, Head of ScaffChamp Operations, described the changes as a step forward for the event.

“We are thrilled to welcome competitors back in 2025. Enhancing our refereeing structure reflects our commitment to fairness and transparency. We want every team to feel supported, and we believe these improvements will deliver a better experience for everyone involved,” he said.

The 2024 competition attracted a record-breaking 21 teams and drew widespread praise for its scale and excitement. Teams competed to erect and dismantle specially designed scaffold structures as quickly and safely as possible.

Poland’s N-Projects secured victory with a build time of 71 minutes, followed by Ireland’s Cumiskey Scaffolding at 83 minutes. Mongolia’s NBIK, who travelled 16 hours to compete, finished third with a time of 85 minutes.

ScaffChamp has grown into a global showcase of skill and teamwork within the scaffolding industry. With plans for expanded oversight and participation in 2025, the event is poised to continue its success.
