Ecclesall Woods Sat Series & CSC heat last call for entries

Dear all,

Our next Saturday Series event is on 3rd Feb at Ecclesall Woods. This is great area offering challenging courses for experienced orienteers, alongside our normal schools' league white to light green courses. More details here.  This event is always very popular so we require lots of volunteers. Please email me if you can help. Helpers get a free run.

This is also the last call for entries for our CompassSport Cup heat, which will be held on the 18th February at Gilling East, North Yorkshire. 

Our only competition in this heat are AIRE. As a result, every runner is really important as any AIRE runner you beat means they get fewer points and increase our chance of qualifying. As the date is in Half Term and a number of our juniors are on GB Squad Weekends we need you all!

Information for the event can be found on the EBOR website . There are nominated courses that the different age classes have to run. The easiest course included in the competition is an orange course, which is run by M/W14 and under. The EBOR website lists the course/age group combinations. All entries are done via Team Captains, although there is limited White and Yellow (which are not part of the competition) entry on the day. 

SYO will subsidise Adult entries by 50% (£7 per entry) and Junior entries in full.

Please sign up via SYO Teams here by 31st January (Please note, that if you have not yet renewed your British Orienteering membership you will need to do so before entering). Fill in the Google Form once per competitor. For White/Yellow course entries - please add in the notes on the final question that you would like to enter White/Yellow. Also if you need a lift or can offer a lift, please make a note on the entry form.

If you have any questions, please email Chris Williamson

Thanks

Pauline
