Congratulations to all the WCOC Juniors who made the journey south of London to compete at this year's Peter Palmer Junior Relays - hosted by "Sax". Once again they return with the trophy as overall winners, as well as an impressive 3rd in the Joan George competition for younger teams. Many thanks to all the adults who took them, and to the club for its continued support. Next year WCOC host this event at Hawse End - can our talented juniors make it 5 in row?!
This year's Allerdale Chase (Long O) will be on Sunday 14th July on the fells west of Dockray near Ullswater. Courses from 4km to 17.5km - choose your challenge.
Pre-enter via SiEntries by Tuesday 9th July (limited EOD).
Come and run in an informal, friendly event at Setmurthy Forest on Sunday morning, just outside Cockermouth. Courses suitable for EVERYONE from complete beginners to experienced orienteers. Just turn up and join in the fun... More details on the Events page.
You might have heard some of the older WCOC Juniors talking about "Lagganlia", "Deeside", "Norway", "Talent Camp" and so on. To get an idea of what it is like to attend one of these various summer training camps and tours:
Peter Palmer winners again - another superb effort from all our Juniors! They've only gone and won entries and accommodation at 10Mila 2019 in Skane, Sweden for a WCOC Team. As always many many thanks to all the drivers and helpers, to WCOC for all your support, to SYO for putting on such a great event, to the Junior who returned from Uni and those who delayed going to Uni until after the race! You really are all Best in the West!
Well done to all the WCOC members who travelled south for the British Sprint Champs at Bath University. Once again the WCOC Juniors produced an impressive set of results, with top 10 placings for Daisy (5th W12); Caitlin and Rosie (4th and 9th W16); Joe S, Joe H and Charlie (3rd, 4th and 7th M16A), and Alastair (a superb 6th on Men's Open).

Just in case you missed it, here is a link to the BBC's Adventure Show which features the British Champs at Balmoral earlier in the year, and includes an interview with WCOC's very own Charlotte Watson along with lots of other familiar faces (available to watch until Sept 18th).
