ESOC Local event at Mary Erskine School and Ravelston Woods
EVENT POSTPONED The SOA has been in touch to advise that, following the death of the Queen, the Scottish Government has requested that all Scottish sport planned activities and events, over this weekend, are cancelled as a mark of respect. Additionally, the Mary Erskine School had already cancelled all its sporting events this weekend so it would not have been appropriate for our event, in their grounds, to go ahead. We will refund all entry fees and look for an alternative date, perhaps in the spring.
The closing date for online entries is 10am on 10th Sept, however as we will need to order the maps in good time the following conditions apply - online entries received by Tuesday 6th Sept @ 6pm will be guaranteed a map for your chosen course - online entries will be accepted up to 10am on Saturday 10th Sept assuming maps are still available - Entry on the day (EOD) will be accepted at registration (from 1pm-2:15pm) on the day of the event assuming maps are still available. Payment by cash or card

We will be ordering extra maps so hopefully everyone will get a run on their chosen course even if you can only decide on the day that you can make it.
This entry system was originally designed primarily for individual entries but has been adapted for this event to make it easier for pairs, groups and families (who wish to go round a course together) to enter. Please read the Event Information below for help with using this system.
Once the first entry has been accepted, a Start List will appear at the bottom of this page and the Courses box will be updated, as entries are received, to indicate the number of maps remaining (will be correct up to 10 am on Saturday 10th Sept).
Full details are on the event webpage including an explanation of the Colour Coded courses. Please read these before you enter and again before the day to check for updates, especially on Friday evening in case the weather has affected the event. If not just turn up at the Start any time within the 15 minute start block you have selected and are listed below.
Course lengths below are now final.
We have printed some extra Light Green maps on non-waterproof paper and we may ask you to collect these from Registration if you are a late entry or EOD
WEATHER ALERT: In light of the very bad weather forecast (lots and lots of rain) for Thursday and Friday of this week the Mary Erskine School head groundsman will be doing a ‘pitch inspection’ early Saturday morning before our event. There is a chance he may not allow us to hold the event so PLEASE CHECK the event webpage on SATURDAY MORNING FROM 9AM FOR CONFIRMATION THE EVENT IS STILL ON.
