Sad News

It is with great sadness that we hear of the death of Peter Knott. Peter was one of the stalwarts of the club and was a past chairman and organiser of many events. He continued to be active even this year organising new posts for the permanent course at Worden Park. Our condolances go to Cherith and the rest of his family.

Lancaster University sprint

How many of tonight's competitors realized that the courses had to be re-planned and maps reprinted today after new building work was started in the last day or so? The quality of the courses was such that there was no way to tell. A stronger than normal field was explained by this event also being in the North West Urban League, though that in itself doesn't explain our two visitors from Australia! Results are here, using the standard UL classes. Your points have been uploaded to the NWUL and SROC league tables are published here, using the SROC classes. Also RouteGadget for both Prologue and Final. Congratulations to all the series winners!

Summer Sprint 3 in Chorley

Astley Park and the incredibly complex Astley Village played host to the latest sprint event this evening. There must be a few fair weather orienteers out there because the damp conditions saw a much reduced turn out. A shame because anyone who wasn't there missed a treat. Unfortunately we had a control interfered with so the results have the legs affected removed. See Astley Park results and league scores.
