  • Major events are Major Events such as a British Championships or the annual JK competition.

Results

Report

Results now available. League table shows any adjustments to scores where controls have not been taken in order.

Another good turnout this week despite the less than perfect weather. Danny's courses were well received.

On the MAXI course no one managed to scoop all 21 controls in the time, but on the MIDI course Katy Thompson visited all controls but was then late back by 1 second, missing out on a perfect score by 1 point. Well done.

Next week is Alkincoats Park and Woods, just 6 miles further east on the M65. See you there.
