2027 U.S. National Caber Championship

February 6–7, 2027 at Apalachee Regional Park in Tallahassee, Florida.

The Tallahassee Highland Games is home to the U.S. National Caber Championship as part of its Highland athletics program. The final 2027 divisions, start times, athlete requirements, awards, and registration process are being finalized.

What is the caber toss?

The caber toss is a traditional Scottish athletic event in which competitors turn a large tapered pole for accuracy and control. A successful turn is judged by how closely the caber lands to a straight 12 o’clock position—not simply by distance.
