New dates for State Leagues - UPDATE
- Last Updated: Sunday, 01 August 2021 12:35
We have new dates for two of our State League weekends that were postponed due to the latest covid outbreak.
Assuming community sport is allowed by then, the Port Macquarie weekend will now be held on Oct 23-24. This is the first time our newest club has hosted a State League event and we are excited for them.
The NSW championships near Lithgow are now set down for November 20-21. This is because it came to our attention that the Bathurst 1000 motor trace was rescheduled to Nov 6-7, our preferred date. Our organisers hence decided that this clash was too big an issue for accommodation and traffic.
We have cancelled the NSW schools champs, and it's highly unlikely the ACT Champs (Aug 21-22) will count as State Leagues given the NSW travel restrictions will apply until late August.
Schools development work continues

School life is progressing close to normal outside the covid restriction zones - which means we are still delivering orienteering to students.
This term, Jenny and Damien Enderby from our Newcastle club have taught a whopping 210 students from Blackalls Park Primary School plus another 215 at Garden Suburb PS.
There are also teacher-led programs at Cedars Christian College in Wollongong, St Raphael's Catholic School in Cowra, Summerland Christian College near Lismore and Rosewood PS.
We thank all the coaches who have conducted these and instructed the teachers.
2021 NSW schools champs cancelled

We are sad to say the NSW Schools Champs set down for August 28-29 have been cancelled due to the ongoing covid situation.
This weekend always brings so much joy to the non-orienteering students and parents who get a real taste of our sport in a friendly atmosphere.
Thank you to Uringa and WHO for all the work they did in preparing the events in south-west Sydney which were also going to be State Leagues.
The Sydney North champs won't be happening on Monday either, and we hope we can put this day on later in the year.
