SROC Summer Sprint series starts soon

The 2012 summer sprint series starts on Monday 14th May at Salt Ayre, Lancaster. The other four events in the series will be held on Tuesday evenings over the next few weeks. Each event consists of two races: a prologue, with start times of 18.30-19.00, swiftly followed by a reverse order final with short start intervals and gaffling/butterflies. The intention is to recreate a full sprint format event in miniature, with the chance to socialise during and after. All five events will be on ISSOM standard maps. fees are £3/£1 and once again we are offering a discount if the whole series is entered in advance. More details on the Sprint Series webpage and the fixture list.

Beginners Very Welcome. The event is very suitable for complete beginners as you can walk/take it at your own pace and as with almost all orienteering there is no mass start, so you will not feel pressured by others. Full help and guidance will be given prior to the first start time of 6.30pm. Beginners can contact Martyn Roome on Martyn@mroome,myzen.co.uk if they want more information.
