Brilliant weather, beaut courses with fast runnable bush, some quirky road-crossing controls and two outstanding sub-junior debuts were the highlights of MetrOLeague 5 at Darks Common in Lapstone.
The Big Foot crew certainly felt the 2C chill at the foot of the Blue Mountains when setting out the controls in the early morning but the day soon warmed up and so did the competition.
Only two teams across the five divisions were guaranteed a spot in the finals before Andy Simpson's talking clock ticked over to 10.01, and when all the textas were put away two hours later it was Bennelong Northside who had roared home, putting all four teams into the Sep 1 deciders at Cataract Scout Camp.
Garingal and the Big Foot have two teams in each, Uringa-Central Coast and SHOO one each.
Results, splits and Routegadget can be accessed through the Big Foot website, while the head-to-head results and individual points tallies will soon be on the ML page. And check out the photo gallery.
Thanks to Big Foot for a superb day. Read the full report here.
