Event Format
The Infantry Orienteering Championships 25 will consist of teams of 8 runners.
Teams of only four will be competitive, but their time will be multiplied by 115% when used in the Unit results.
The event will be in four phases:
1. Optional Pre-Event training. This will consist of a map walk familiarisation activity delivered by Army Orienteering Coaches.
2. Spanish Score race. All runners must visit every control point. 10 mins penalty will be added to runners time for each one missed.
3. Harris Team race. Teams of four, starting at the same time. Control points can be visited in any order, some must be visited by every team member and some by only one. 10 mins penalty will be added to team time for each one missed. Team time is slowest runner multiplied by 4. Both Unit team times are added together.
4. Prize Giving. Unit times are 8 Spanish score times and 2 Harris team times added together, or teams of four multiplied by 115%.
Units must plan to stay for this phase.
