Our juniors shone in round 1 of MetrO League at Castle Hill on Sunday.
Big Foot borrowed WHO's Fred Caterson Reserve map, which had a mix of bush tracks and intricate small rockfaces.
Riley Grainger and Cooper Horley were fastest in Division 2 as (Garingal) started their title defence in a close win over the Also-Rans made up from runners surplus to their clubs' requirements. IKO's Cameron Will was sixth.
In Division 3, GO rookie Tim McConaghy achieved a top-10 placing on debut, while Callum Waland was third in Division 4.
WHO's most recent SSS course setter Will Kay topped Division 5 and Big Foot primary schooler (just 10 years old, wow!) Alton Freeman was third.
In the new Division 6, Big Foot's Jamie Marsh was 3rd, SHOO 9-year-old Rory Shedden (crumbs - they're getting younger!) was 4th and WHO 12-year-old Lachlan Coady was 7th. Division 6 is on the Easy side of Moderate navigation, so these kids are already ahead of the curve.
These are fantastic results and very promising for the future.
All the results and links are on the ML web page.
A big thanks to Big Foot for a great event in difficult circumstances.
