NNC4 Heathfield Event - important news from Lynne at BASOC
We are currently keeping a close eye on the weather over the next couple of days with regard to the NNC4 at Heathfield on Wednesday 18th January. There has been a little bit of snow in Grantown (quite a bit of it has fallen on icy ground).
Our main concern is travel as the routes many of you are coming along are quite high; for example, there was an accident on the A939 near Dava Station this morning due to the icy nature of the road surface and the A9 at Daviot and over the Slochd does not look great on the live traffic cameras.
We will make a decision about the event by 2pm on Wednesday; you will all be emailed by that time to let you know whether or not it is going ahead. The information will also be on the BASOC website and Facebook page. If we have to postpone it, we will reschedule for Wednesday 1st February and carry your entry forward.
CompassSport Cup and Trophy heat -
Note from Rob - We are still yet to receive entry details for this event - I understand STAG are awaiting final permission from Forest and Land Scotland. Please keep the date free if you would like to join us in this team event, and look out for the email from me, and postings on the Club Web and Facebook pages as soon as I have heard from the folks at STAG. We have agreed that as in previous years, the club will pay 100% of Junior entry fees and 50% of Senior entry fees. Qualification for the final will be more of a challenge this year, as ESOC are now in the Trophy (less than 120 BOF members) not the Cup.
Trophy teams: MOR, KFO, MAROC, INVOC, GRAMP, CLYDE, AYROC, TAY, INT, RR, ESOC, ELO, BASOC, STAG
Trophy: The first and second placed Trophy teams qualify for the Final. Then if MOR, MAROC or INT come first or second then a third team qualifies for the final.
Entry classes will be the same as last year. For the qualification event club runners who are either BOF & SOA or only SOA members can represent the club. In the final (to be held this year in South West England in November!), everyone must be BOF members.
So, watch this space!
New Main Club League Table for 2023 - note from Eddie
Please note that there will be many events added by clubs through the season, but especially note that many events outside of the north we would expect to be quorate for Moravian, thus any regional standard or above event that has 10 Moravian starters will be included. For example History suggests that the Edinburgh City race later this month will probably be included. Currently there are only 6 Moravian entries. If you are intending to go, all the details are here.
