All courses except the orange and yellow cross the R413 twice. There are no manned crossings and all due care must be taken when crossing this road.

There will be a fun, winter-themed string course for our most junior orienteers, free-of-charge.

UCD are organising the intervarsities Intervarsity starts will be from 10.30am- 11.00 am.

Is there any information yet about courses or start times for the sprint event in Belfield on Saturday?

I want to offer a huge congratulations to the Military College for breaking UCD\'s run and capturing team Gold in the Men\'s A class. There\'s definitely scope for these cadets to build on their success and add to the competition at League events as well as other Championship events. I\'d also like to extend a congratulations to UCD\'s women for continuing their streak in the Women\'s A event.
The event definitely had the largest selection of colleges in recent years so hopefully that\'s a trend that will continue.
I\'d like to thank everyone who attended our sprint event on Saturday, and finally I\'d like to thank CNOC and all their helpers for allowing us to double their Leinster League event as the InterVarsity Championships 2016/17.
Hope that\'s everything.

Hi,
I lost my mobile phone at the event on Sunday, i didn\'t take it out on the course but feel it was lost in the car park when getting changed. If anyone has any info it would be very much appreciated. I can be contacted through Jacqueline on 087 7735659.

Thanks Stephen.
