100 orienteers kicked off the 2023 OY season at Catchpool Stream today. Scores will be based on a sprint-length Prolog followed by a Middle distance. Nick Smith and Yvette Baker won the Red Long categories.
Sunday's event at Karori completed the 2023 CSW Classic series, with impressive results for OHV and Hutt Valley schools. There were 5 wins and 10 further top 3 placings.
