Course and Score Information
You have 60 minutes from the Start to Finish via as many controls as you can.
You gain points for each control visited but you lose 10 points per minute – or part minute over the hour.
Points per control may vary from 10 to 50 points at some events, so check your map and plan your route before you start.
Bonus points (10 per minute under the hour) are available but ONLY if you manage to visit every control.
Withdrawals policy
For the organiser it's always appreciated if we can have a good idea of numbers likely to turn up (rather than have a surge of late entries). We appreciate you may want to be sure you're fit as you don't lose an entry fee through injury (or other life issues). Therefore for all WSX events, withdrawals will be available up to (at least) midnight of the day before the event via the Racesignup web page for this event. By default the full value of your entry will be credited to your racesignup account with Wessex-OC, to be redeemed on entry to any future WSX events. If you are unlikely to enter another WSX event, we can arrange a refund to your original payment card, less a small admin cost of 60p (currently), if you contact the organiser before the date of the event.
Non-members insurance
Important: Non-members are not insured under British Orienteering’s public liability policy. By entering this event, you acknowledge that you are participating at your own risk.
