Crewe Spring 2026

Caleb Wolf Dunn topped the classic 3x3x3 Cube with a winning average of 6.43 seconds, leading a packed schedule at Crewe Spring 2026. The weekend unfolded on March 21 and March 22 at Crewe Alexandra Football Club in Crewe, Cheshire, United Kingdom, bringing together 77 competitors across 10 distinct events and 20 total rounds. Behind every smooth transition from group stages to finals were the dedicated organizers, delegates, and community volunteers who kept timers resetting, scorecards circulating, and judging stations fully staffed throughout the entire cubing competition.

Delivering a fast-paced speedcubing program requires meticulous coordination, and the team on the ground in Cheshire ensured that every heat stayed directly on schedule. From managing scramblers to resolving technical questions on the floor, the staff allowed athletes to focus entirely on their solves. The competition floor saw United Kingdom athletes claim 29 podium positions alongside one podium finish for Hong Kong, reflecting both intense domestic talent and a well-run stage where competitors could perform at their very peak across the two days.

The premier 3x3 results crowned Dunn after a strong final round where he also recorded a single of 5.54 seconds. Daniel Partridge secured the second step on the podium with a 6.75 average, while Danny Morgan completed the top three with an average of 7.62 seconds. The traditional Rubik's Cube drew a field of 69 competitors across three rounds, testing speed, consistency, and stage nerves in front of the assembled venue.

Dunn was not finished with a single victory, claiming two additional titles over the course of the tournament. In the 4x4x4 Cube, Dunn took first place with a 28.14 average, edging past Harvie Partridge who delivered a 28.28 average and Franklyn Bensley at 28.73. Dunn then added the Pyraminx title to his weekend tally, posting a 2.02 winning average and a best single solve of 1.55 seconds across two rounds of play, confirming a dominant multi-event campaign in the 2026 season.

Beyond the three-layer puzzles, specialty events highlighted the tactical variety of the tournament. Danny Morgan produced a standout showing by winning the Clock event with a 3.16 average, ahead of Luke Burns at 3.82 and Aidan Grainger at 3.86. Morgan doubled his gold haul by securing the 5x5x5 Cube title with a 45.57 average, narrowly beating Daniel Partridge who averaged 46.49. In Megaminx, Grainger took the title in 26.60 seconds, while Joseph Briggs won 3x3x3 One-Handed with an 11.25 average. Isaac Corker took the Square-1 crown with a 6.49 average, and Daniel Partridge won 3x3x3 Blindfolded with a 46.14 single solve.

Away from the top step of the podium, the open floor provided major personal milestones across the community. Paige Corfield took on a demanding schedule of 10 events, dropping her 5x5x5 Cube personal best down to 1:14.42, which was 45.8 percent faster than her prior mark of 2:17.30, while also posting a first ever attempt of 4:37.99 in 3x3x3 Blindfolded. George Tudor achieved a 19.01 Clock personal best, shaving 52.8 percent off his previous 40.25 time. Solomon Abbott improved his Pyraminx record by 40.8 percent to 6.64 seconds, while Simon A. Hall logged a 27.89 personal best in 3x3x3 One-Handed, an improvement of 31.3 percent over his previous best.

Other competitors embraced new challenges on the official stage. Dominic Russell entered seven events and registered his first ever attempt at 4x4x4 Cube with a 50.92 solve, alongside a 15th-place finish in Megaminx. Kiran Prigge tackled eight events, lowering his 4x4x4 Cube personal best by 27.9 percent to 56.80 seconds and making his first ever attempt in Clock at 17.04. Henrry Jones entered his first WCA competition, taking on five events and securing a best finish of 19th in Pyraminx with a 2.83 debut attempt in 2x2x2 Cube. Ezra Wyke also debuted at the tournament across four events, logging an 8.54 first attempt in Pyraminx.

The 2x2x2 Cube event brought one of the tightest contests of the entire weekend, where Tommy Kiely captured the victory with a 1.67 winning average, matching the 1.67 average of runner-up Danny Morgan and holding off Luke Burns at 1.77. The event witnessed an extraordinary wave of fast solves, with multiple competitors posting sub-two-second averages during earlier rounds. That fierce level of competition capped an energetic showcase of speed cubing, made possible by the dedicated crew that organized Crewe Spring 2026.

When the final solves settled and the venue packed down, the smooth delivery of Crewe Spring 2026 stood as a testament to the community members operating behind the scenes. Running 20 separate rounds without interruption across a two-day schedule provided 77 cubers the exact platform needed to push personal boundaries, setting a high operational standard for the United Kingdom calendar as the rest of the year unfolds.
