The Cotswold Novice Trial is a dedicated motorsport event organized by the Vintage Sports-Car Club (VSCC), a British club founded in 1934 that specializes in pre-1940 vintage vehicles. It's designed specifically for newcomers to VSCC speed trials (also known as "trials"), which involve navigating challenging off-road sections or "hills" in classic cars. The event emphasizes accessibility, safety, and fun, making it an ideal entry point for novice drivers. It runs alongside or immediately after the main Cotswold Trial, which is a more established competition for experienced participants.

History
The broader Cotswold Trial has roots dating back to the 1930s, with early VSCC events in the Cotswolds region documented as far back as 1936, often starting from scenic spots like the Bear Inn on Rodborough Common. It evolved as a novice-friendly event to introduce new competitors to vintage trialling, a discipline that tests driving skill on uneven terrain without high speeds. The dedicated Novice Trial format was formalized in 2023 to accommodate growing interest, expanding from a simple "Class 0" novice category within the main event into a standalone Sunday competition.
This change allowed beginners a full day focused on learning, with sections shared from the main trial. Past winners in the novice class include Georgie Talbot (in a 1928 Austin 7 Chummy) in one recent year and Hughie Walker (in a 1930 Austin VAT 69) in another.
