Changes to Junior Training
Due to personal circumstances I have had to adjust the junior training programme. Please make sure you take a look at the junior training page to see the plan for the rest of this year. I’m also looking for someone to plan the junior training event on the 6 Dec at Ormeau Park please. Without a volunteer this will have to be cancelled. Alan

Woodburn Forest – Autumn Trophy 1 – Good to go!
Registration and starts open. Even the sun is trying to make an appearance!
No IntrO at Woodburn
My planning inspection at Woodburn revealed that the short walk from the parking to the start was through a blasted heath of a felled area – no trailO control sites could be seen, let alone trees! There will therefore be no IntrO activity at Woodburn tomorrow. The results and updated standings from the Lady Dixon PreO are available here The updated NISeries tables following Portstewart last weekend can be found here Several classes have already been won after 5 events – congratulations to those highlighted in red!
