The max score available is 550 points and there will be a 10 point deduction for every minute (or part of) you are late beyond the 1 hour lim it. The estimated optimal distance for visiting all controls is 7.7km with 340m climb. 😱\n\nThis course is not suitable for novice orienteers or younger juniors - participants should be of Light Green Standard (TD4) as a minimum and comfortable with navigating using a compass over rough groun d. Check out the Junior/Novice activities below if this is not suited to y ou.\n\nThe course has been designed to use the most runnable and interesti ng terrain. However\, be aware that there has been some recent felling\, s o\, in some patches the ground is more cut up\, slowing running in parts b ut opening up other areas.\n\nBeing June\, the vegetation is at its height . Areas on the map marked as 'undergrowth run' are more like a walk and ar eas marked as 'undergrowth walk' - forget it\, find an alternative route c hoice. You have been warned!\n\nWet river crossings are good route choices \, but only cross where it is safe to do so. Under no circumstances cross where the river is marked with a black border. These 'uncrossable' parts a re dangerous either due to the steepness of the banks or depth/speed of wa ter - they are also off the best lines to take. \n\n \;\n\nJunior/Nov ice Senior Activities\n\nClub coach Steph has designed separate activities more suited for juniors (MW14 and below) and novice seniors. There will a lso be a mini competition for the Junior Juniors\, with rewards for all an d prizes for some!\n\nThere will be three courses on offer – Orange (TD3 )\, Yellow (TD2) and White (TD1) and to be competitive you should enter th e correct course for your age and run independently without being shadowed .  Of course\, non-competitive participants and even adults are also welc ome. The courses will be tailored to help individuals improve their techni cal skills and gain confidence.\n\nCourse details:\n\n⚪ White – 1.8 km             M/W 8A – born in 2014 or after or M/W 10 B – bo rn in 2012 or 2013.\n\nThis is primarily for experienced juniors aged 8 an d under\, or newcomers under 10. All paths and tracks with no route choice and a control at every decision point (junction). This is almost a guided walk and the controls will be placed strategically to help the competitor s choose the correct path to follow.\n\n🟡 Yellow – 2.5 km            M/W 10 A – born 2012 or 2013  or  M/W 12 B – born 2010 or 2 011.\n\nThis is primarily for experienced juniors aged 10 and under\, or n ewcomers under 12. This follows line features but some smaller trails are used and there may be up to two decision points within a leg- ie: a place\ , usually a junction\, where the competitor needs to decide which way to g o. There may be 😊and ☹cards along the route indicating a correct or i ncorrect path!\n\n🟠 Orange – 2.6 km          M/W 12 A – bo rn 2010 or 2011 or M/W 14 B born 2008 or 2009.\n\nThis is primarily for ex perienced juniors aged 12 and under\, or newcomers/novices (including adul ts). Competitors should be able to take short cuts between line features t o the control or to a catching feature such as a path and there are some r oute choice decisions to be made. Obvious contour features such as hill to ps can be used as control sites. There can be several decision points on e ach leg. There is one route choice (which you may or may not take) along a very indistinct path which will be marked out with red and white tape.\n\ n \;\n\nEntry: Entry for all Sunday activities is free. There is no on line entry for Sunday's activities\, just enter on day (EOD). However\, it would be great if you could let Steph know in advance if you are planning on doing her activities\, so we have an idea of the number of maps to pri nt.\n\nRegistration and Parking: This will be at the Mobile Orienteering O ffice (MOO) situated at our 'youth' camp site next to the Toilet block and open from about 1015am.\n\n\n\nStarts: The expected start time for both t he Score and Steph's activities is 11am. It will be a punching start and f inish. The start\, finish and download will be adjacent to the campsite.\n \nSafety: We share the park with many other users such as hikers\, dog wal kers\, horse riders and mountain bikers\, please give way and try to avoid startling them (especially the horses). There will be optional wet river crossings on the score course\, White\, Yellow and Orange course will cros s streams/rivers using bridges.\n\nThere will be an important 5 min safety briefing beforehand. Participants must wear leg covering and carry a whis tle and obviously a watch if you are on the Score course. Courses will clo se after the hour time limit (approximately 12 noon) and controls will be collected in promptly. Upon return everyone must download\, so we know you are all safely back and we don't need to send out a search party.\n\n&nbs p\;\n\n\n CATEGORIES:Tollymore Weekend LOCATION:Tollymore Forest Park\, Main Carpark\, Newcastle\, BT33 0PW\, Nort hern Ireland GEO:54.22063546586094;-5.920328035534681 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Main Carpark\, Newcastle\, BT33 0PW\, Northern Ireland;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Tollymore Forest Pa rk:geo:54.22063546586094,-5.920328035534681 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20220327T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
