The teams for the 2017 Great Knaresborough Bed Race were drawn in a public lottery held at the Working Men's Club on 15 March. All entrants were invited to attend.
Lotteries have been required for many years for this hugely popular event due to the organisers, Knaresborough Lions Club, receiving more entries than the maximum 90-team race field. All teams who entered but didn't get through the draw will have their fee returned.
Teams who missed out are asked to keep in touch in case there are later vacancies. Congratulations to those selected; commiserations to all who didn't get through.
