The RTITB's Chairman, John Armstrong, revealed that 230 teams entered 1987's National Junior Mechanics Competition (NJMC). After regional heats, quarter-finals and semi-finals the final day consisted of a morning practical round contested by 10 teams, only 4 teams qualified for the final round.

The team from Soundwell Technical College, Bristol, England won the competition for the 4th time, having last beaten the competition in 1981. Carlisle College were place 2nd, after leading in the practical round.
