SROCkite.gif (2521 bytes) The SROC Autumn Series is here!

We are excited to announce our series of Maprun timed events over the Autumn, open to everyone and they are FREE! They are all linear courses ie normal cross country, not score, mostly of middle type lengths.
We will aim to produce class winners for the series, with your best 3 results to count out of 4. To score you will need to compete in the time period shown for each, though the courses will likely be live after that if you wish to do them then. At the present time the events are:

Worden Park - Middle - 12th to 27th September
Astley Park - Middle - 3rd to 18 October
Beacon Fell - Middle - 24th October to 15th November
Simpson Ground - Middle - 21st November to 6th December
And possibly one more - watch this space!

The Worden Park event will be found in the MaprunF app, go to select events - UK/Lancashire/South Ribble, Chorley, Preston. The course map will be downloaded from the BOF site, Go Orienteering/ Permanent Courses/ then filter on NWOA and GPS course. Make sure you download the Worden Autumn series course called Worden Virtual Middle on the BOF system and entitled as Worden Park VOC POC July 20 Middle 4.8km on the map's control descriptions.


You can also use MaprunG now to time yourself on your Garmin watch.

Top Tip - if your phone/watch does not punch just carry on. Results can be reviewed for missed controls by you and the organiser.

Any questions, whether on the Maprun file or downloading the map, just email me on Development@sroc.org.
