The WNL continues with SARUM's Event at Tisbury this Saturday and then our event at the Ageas Bowl next Thursday, with entries closing on Sunday at 11:59pm. So far a disappointing entry of 13, considering this a new area for the WNL. Entries are usually around the 35 or 40 mark for the league, so I hoping for a improvement on this over the weekend. If necessary I will consider extending the entry. Also some helpers are required to help put controls out, please contact Kevin -  k.bracher1080 (at) gmail.com.

Terry Smith has just completed the mammoth task of trying to populate an archive of historic results for the November Classic. Thanks, Terry, and to all those who contributed to the process. The results, dating back to 1968, can now be found here. As a challenge, Terry suggests trying to find the years in which the current British Orienteering CEO, Peter Hart, competed.

Congratulations to the 34 SOC members who ran at Holmsley today at the CompassSport Trophy! We were third out of eight. Sadly only two go through to the final, but it gives us hope for next year!

It was a freezing cold day so a massive thank you to the SOC members who helped: Ian (as controller), Norman, Helen, Barry, Rebecca, Alastair, Bernie, David and Julia, as well as Terry who volunteered to be a jury member.

Apologies that we didn't get everyone in the photo - that's the problem with a long start window. It was lovely to catch up with people in Allan's awning after their runs.

The next chance to run for SOC is the British Orienteering Championships Relays in March - look out for details.
