Tough courses for NSW Middle Champs at Appin

Last Updated: Saturday, 13 May 2017 20:33

Challenging courses were the feature of the NSW Middle Distance championships at Appin on Saturday.

Setter Stephan Wagner interspersed contouring around gentle hillsides with intricate areas of rock in light green that required you to be right on top of the control to find it.

In brilliant autumn sunshine, Newcastle dominated with 14 titles, no doubt benefiting from two outstanding events in the past month on hoime turf for practice.

An indicator of the difficulty was the fact that only four hard courses had winning times under 50 minutes.

A huge thank you to SHOO for a great start to the weekend, especially after permission for the original venue was withdrawn just two months out.

Results are here.
