This time young orienteerers may compete in all legs. Earlier young competitors were only allowed to participate in the shortest legs. The youngest competitors allowed to take part in the relay are those born in 1999.

Heikki Peltola, the Technical Advisor of Kuopio-Jukola, suggests that young orienteerers taking part in the Jukola relay for the first time should choose the shortest legs. Orienteering clubs are responsible for the choices.
