Welcome to the website for all members of the British Military Contingent (BMC) participating in the Nijmegen Marches.

Nijmegen Marches 2011

The 95th Nijmegen Marches (NM11) are now behind us.  The blisters are healed (hopefully), the bars have been restocked and Heumensoord is once again just a forest!  On Friday 22 Jul 11, 38,422 participants were cheered along the Via Gladiola to the finish to receive their well-deserved medals.  Of this number 815 were representing the BMC. 

The BMC Support Element would like to offer their congratulations to all those who completed NM11 successfully.  The event was a great success and the dropout rate was much lower than in previous years; most likely the result of cooler temperatures and good preparation by teams.  Detailed statistics for BMC participants can be viewed via the link in the document library below.

Nijmegen Marches 2012

The 96th Nijmegen Marches (NM12) will be held on 17-20 Jul 2012.  Teams wishing to participate in NM12 as part of the BMC may now register.
