The 2025 JK was staged in Yorkshire by the Yorkshire and Humberside OA (YHOA) with the weekend based in and around the city of Sheffield. There were two TrailO events , one on Good Friday (18th April) and one on Easter Saturday (19th April):
- Friday 18th April: Crookes Valley & Weston Park - A Combined TrailO (with an AZ PreO section and a 4 station TempO section),
- Saturday 19th April: Hesley Wood - A PreO course (28 controls for Elite and 18 controls for Standard) with Time Controls (2 for Elite and 1 for Standard).
Day 1 provided some quite challenging courses which made full use of the available campus and parkland areas. Event officials were River Edis-Smith (Planner), Christine Roberts (Controller) and John Kewley (Organiser, Co-planner).
Day 2 at Hesley Wood to the north of Sheffield used a very different terrain to Day 1's event in Sheffield. Complex contours from former mining activity in woodland gave the opportunity to provide challenging controls. Main event officials were John Kewley (Planner and Organiser), Christine Roberts (Controller) and River Edis-Smith (Co-planner).

The 2024 JK was staged jointly by the 2 Midlands OAs (EMOA/WMOA). A single PreO event was staged on Day 1 (29 March) at Loughborough University.
- For Elite course competitors, there was a 20 control PreO course (with one of these voided). To provide a tie-brak, there was a very short timed section with 3 A-Z controls. Competitors were ranked on (1) number correct on the PreO course, then (2) number correct in the timed section, and finally, (3) time taken in the timed section.
- For Standard course competitors, there was a 15 control PreO course (with one of these voided). There was no tie break - competitors did not do the timed section.
