SROCkite.gif (2521 bytes) Compass Sport Cup correction to team scores

I am indebted to Roger Jackson of WCOC for double-checking my calculations, which had to be done manually after a software problem yesterday. All results are confirmed except that I had credited MDOC with an extra score, so their total reduces and LOC move into 2nd place. Please look over the Club Results and Individual Results.

SROCkite.gif (2521 bytes) Farleton Knott CSC/CST start list

A start list for Sunday's event has now been published. Please note that there are many entries which have important details missing. Club captains have been asked to supply these, but if you spot any mistakes or missing details please email cscentries@sroc.org . This does not extend to changes in start times since the start list is very full and adequate separation between club members has been difficult to achieve.

With only one more event to go in the Night Street League, we can publish the league tables after event 9. There's sure to be another record turnout at the final event in Lancaster on 11th March as regulars try to gain a few more points.

Leaving the last control - BOC relays
