A record 30 teams will contest this year's MetrO League, which starts on Sunday at Mt Annan Botanic Gardens.
SHOO and Illawarra Kareelah have combined across Divisions 2-5, and SHOO will field a separate team in Divn 5 through which to mentor some of their younger talent into bush orienteering.
Along with some promotions and relegations from last year, this means Divisions 4 and 5 will have 7 teams each. As such, one team will contest two matches each round so that we can achieve a full round and finals over the six events.
In Division 1 we have 4 teams, so it will be two full rounds with no final. Garingal stunned Big Foot in last year's final to end the Pink People's Origin-like streak. Can the Feet bounce back?
All this year's details are on the ML web page. We wish all participants an enjoyable season and hope to see lots of Summer Series runners taking the next step up.
Please pre-enter for each event. The briefing for round 1 is here.
