Report on East Midlands Meeting – 17th June 2019
Midland Champs weekend 2020 – EMOA have been invited by EC&C to add an event alongside
the DVO Midland Champs event in February to provide a weekend’s orienteering. NOC have
agreed to add a Middle distance event on the Saturday.
Accounts - Mark Webster had reworked the accounts to better reflect the JIRCS monies and
status. JIRCS shows a total loss of £94.62, which is under the budgeted loss of £200. It was
noted that there will still be £600 outstanding from DVO for the Chatsworth map which will be
paid when the maps are used which is currently planned for CompassSport Cup Final in 2021.
This figure will need to remain in the accounts until then.
The loss for 2018/2019 will be around £800, mainly due to additional costs for the 50th
anniversary which had not been planned in the accounts. It was agreed that as stated in the
minutes of 11th June 2018 “EMOA should maintain a cash reserve of £10,000 in the current and
savings accounts (excluding the Junior Squad Deposit Account), to allow for the support of
major events.” This should continue as the aim of the budget and so Mark was asked to make
sure we maintained event levies and membership at a similar level to this year in the proposed
budget for next year.
BOF Qualifications Database - The BOF Qualifications Database seems to be out of date for
the officials in the region. The database maintains records of all current organisers, planners
and controllers. It was recognised that clubs should review the list of qualifications on the
database for their members (and especially ensure that lapsed members are removed). Clubs
will have to currently mail changes to the BOF offices to allow those changes to be applied to
the database. Coaches are also included in the qualification database but Hilary Palmer believes
they have just been verified so coaches should be up to date.
Need for new Officers – Two of the key posts on the committee will be vacant at the EMOA
AGM. We need a new Financial Secretary and we are still short of a Development Officer.
Please would members consider taking on these roles at the AGM. The posts do not entail large
amounts of work, so please consider volunteering. If you want more details on want the posts
require you to do, just contact one of the current committee.
EMOA AGM – Details of the AGM venue, date and time and in this EMEWS, A number of the
committee will not be able to attend due to being out of the country, so please could members
attend to ensure the AGM is quorate.
Shadowing and the competitiveness of parents – NOC had recently surveyed members and
one comment was that at some events parents were actively discouraged from shadowing their
children on the White / Yellow courses and then competing on their own courses. While for
major events this may be appropriate it was felt that we need to encourage parents and not
look to discourage them at level C and level D events.
However, when Hilary looked at the rules they do include:
EMEWS
Page 5
9.14 The Organiser may permit the shadowing of one competitor by another person. Certain
competition rules may prohibit shadowing on certain courses. The competition rules explain how
the shadowed competitor’s result is to be recorded.
9.15 If you are the ‘shadower’ then you must have completed your own race before undertaking
any shadowing. There may be other restrictions imposed on the ‘shadower’ by the Organiser.
There is also:
12.1 The spirit of fairness and good fellowship is to be the guiding principle in all aspects of the
sport, including the interpretation of these Rules.
It was agreed by the EMOA Committee that in the ‘spirit of fairness and good fellowship’
organisers should allow shadowing of young children by parents at local and regional events
(including EMOA League events). In order to meet BOF rules it was agreed that EMOA would
apply for a rule waiver to allow shadowing at Level C and D events on White and Yellow courses.
After the meeting Hilary did apply for a rule waiver to EC&C and this was granted as a 12
month waiver from 1st September 2019 for EMOA events. The results of this waiver will then
be reviewed and it may even be that the BOF rule could be changed. The waiver will apply to all
EMOA clubs and all Club Fixtures secretaries will be informed of this change.

(i) 23 Jun 2019 – East Midlands Sprint Champs - LOG – Witham St Hugh’s
(ii) 14/15 Sep 2019 – British Sprints / Middle 2019 – LEI / DVO – Loughborough /

Future Possible Events
(i) 2022 - Midland Champs - NOC
Grimsthorpe - LOG have been approached to use the Grimsthorpe event in December as a
Junior Selection Race.
Midland Champs 2020 – DVO have lost permission for Shining Cliff for the Midland Champs in
2020. However, it has been agreed to use Longstone Moor instead. This has necessitated a
change of planner and organiser, though the controller remains the same. The changes were
approved by EMOA.
JK 2024 - Chris Phillips reported that for JK 2024 a number of clubs have been approached
to support the event. LEI will run one of the days. There is likely to be an overall paid co-
EMEWS
Page 6
ordinator for the JK 2024 as a whole. The event is likely to be in West Midlands area but not
hosted by WMOA as such (though the local clubs will obviously help with permissions).
Sharing Best Practice - NOC’s urban event at Clifton campus had complex looping and before
the event the competitors were presented with an outline course so they understood the
complexity of the loops. The officials had thought that there may be a lot of disqualifications
as there were many controls and multiple loops. However, there were very few, and they believe
it was because people were well briefed in advance.
EMOA AGM – Mike will send out a publication before the AGM to be distributed to members
with last year’s minutes.
Dates and venues for future meetings - All meetings to be held at the Pace Room, St Mary’s
Church, Clifton Village, Nottinghamshire at 7.30 p.m. The next meeting is the EMOA AGM on
Monday September 23rd. The next committee meeting will be on Monday 18th November 2019.
All members are welcome to attend committee meetings if they wish to do so.

ISF World Schools Orienteering Championships 2019 Otepää, Estonia
28th April – 5th May
Rachel Duckworth
I was part of the older girls select team that was made up of 4 other girls from across England.
Knowing all the girls prior to the week helped me settle in quickly and concentrate on our job at
hand.
The next day was our first day running; the ‘training’ event. The aim of this event was to get
used to the terrain of the Estonian forests and the set-up of the whole competition in general.
Our team took it steady and went round together, exploring and adjusting to the very thick
undergrowth we would face for the whole week. We also got to see the stadium for the first
time which we would finish in both days.
First day of competing - the long distance event. After 5.5 kilometres of battling through the
green and marshes I finished 19th! With only a small hiccup at control 2 I smoothly sailed
through the course. By achieving my top 20 goal I was on a high for the rest of the week.
Second day of competing – the middle distance event. With a place of 27th I wasn’t as happy, I
couldn’t let it dampen my mood though as I reminded myself I was one of the youngest in the
age category. With most of my field being 17, 2 years older than me! A minute separated the
girl in 17th and I, that’s a place every 6 seconds. A bit annoying considering I made a minute
error at control 6.

Our ‘rest’ day was a cultural exploration day. After spending 3 hours in the amazing Tartu
EMEWS
Page 10
AHHAA Science Museum we made our way to Tartu University. Earlier in the week 30 members
of the England team learnt a Morris dance, me included. We performed this as part of the
cultural performances that evening. We had an amazing time just enjoying ourselves. After
dancing we then sat back and enjoyed shows like the haka from New Zealand and a salsa from
Spain. Throughout the week we stayed with the Finnish, Spanish, Austrian, Belgian and French.
This gave us the opportunity to socialise and make friends, exchanging social media to stay in
contact in the future.
Our last event and our last chance to run in the Estonian forests was the friendship relay. We
were placed in randomly selected teams from every country; I was with an older Slovenian girl
and a younger Russian boy. We battled through the strong language barrier to successfully
complete the course and finish holding hands with huge smiles on our faces’. After the race was
over it was chance to swap some of our England kit for other countries. I swapped with a NZ
girl and a Latvian girl, both of which I had made friends with earlier in the week.
I feel very privileged to have been able to represent my country at the highest level and
perform the way I did. I learnt valuable skills I will hopefully be able to use at future
international events while also culturally gaining so much experience. The friends I made
throughout the week are countless, many of which I will see again!

Once again I'd like to thank EMOA for the grant which allowed me to go, I loved every second
of it.

EMJOS Summary Report - June 2019
Past Training
13th & 14th April 2019 - EMJOS joined the Yorkshire and Humberside Junior squad (and other
squads (NE, NW and WM), 75 athletes in total) for a training session based at Malham
(BOC2019 limestone terrain). Three areas of limestone training plus a fast head to head relay
back at the hostel. The training went very well.
Future Training
A training day is to be undertaken at Clifton Campus during the summer.
Selections to Junior Competitions
Harrington Leake was selected to attend Lagganlia this summer.
2 other DVO juniors have already reached championship standard this year.
Ben Squire and Rachel Duckworth have been selected for the Talent Training Squad.
The squad are preparing for JIRCS this year in Sheffield. One problem is that this is fresher’s
week for universities so any 18 year olds may not be able to attend.
The squad are looking for their next intake in September. Please contact Ant or Ann-Marie
Duckworth if have any potential new members for the squad.

DVO 50th Anniversary Event
On 10th May DVO celebrated their 50th anniversary with a dinner at the Mainsail Restaurant at
Carsington Water. You can see that some of the club do scrub up well when they are not at an
event.
The meal was followed on 15th June with their club championships on Carsington Pastures. The
event was set up to use the type of facilities that may have been around 50 years ago, so no
electronic punching, split times, etc.
So when you got to the event the first thing you were presented with was a control card
First thing to remember was the old control card, which you needed to punch with a pin punch
to prove you had been to the correct site. The control cards were card, and so having filled in
your name on the card the next thing you did was to take the control descriptions and write
them in to the boxes on your control card, so you didn’t have to look at them as you went round
a course, but had your details on your control card. Having completed this you then needed to
transpaseal your card (to make it waterproof). It is amazing how many orienteers still have rolls
of transpaseal in their drawers, even though we never have to use control cards normally!
EMEWS
Page 13
Many competitors took the opportunity to wear their old orienteering suits
Then we get to the map. You didn’t get overprinted maps on waterproof material. The map was a
blank map and you had to make sure it was kept dry in a large polythene bag. Another thing you
used to keep in your drawer at home was a large number of different size polythene bags you
could use for events. There were events when we had wet weather where I found that water
got in to the bag and you ended up trying to navigate on a mush of paper, and often the ink
would run, and the map became almost unreadable.
The map though had to be marked up after you started and DVO kept that tradition for the
event. Time taken to draw your map
was part of the time for your
course so you became skilled at
transcribing the master map on to
your map as quickly as possible. My
map from Carsington is shown here.
I even started by drawing the start
and finish in the wrong place! Note:
I also transpasealed my
descriptions to the map.
I met at least three people as I
went round who had marked their
controls in the wrong place or who
had completely missed marking a
control on their map. It seems we
have lost the skills of marking our
courses on the map.
The DVO event did have one luxury
that we never had in the past at
events. The master maps were
located inside a tent, and even on
tables (see photo over the page). In
the past they were always just on
the ground and in the event of bad
weather you might have a large
plastic sheet covering them to make
sure that when you marked up your
map it stayed relatively dry.
Once stared you did have to make sure that the pin punches did actually work. The Carsington
event used the old aluminium stakes with two pin punches on. One of the things that has become
much easier for planners is the new stakes are much lighter to carry round when getting them
out before the event.
EMEWS
Page 14
Finishing was also a bit different. You couldn’t just punch the finish box. You had to be timed
over the finish line. Someone had to make sure to have recorded your time against a number on
a sheet. You would then be handed a cloak room ticket. You would then remove your control card
and ensure that the cloakroom ticket was stapled to your control card which then disappeared
in to the finish tent.
Picture by Graham Johnson
Results did not normally appear for a few weeks. You always had to leave a stamped addressed
envelope in order to get them sometime in the following week(s).
One of the fun things about this was that the control cards had to be checked after the event,
and also calculate the time for the person. Most clubs had a night, often the night of the event,
when they got a lot of the members together to go through all the control cards and check the
pin punching was correct and calculate the times on the cards. This was often a good social
event.
Then it was time to get the cards in order and type the results up, then off to a local school
(often) to get the results printed and then stuff those results in to the stamped addressed
envelopes the competitors had left at the event. So you often didn’t know who had won the
event for a few weeks afterwards. Modern electronics has some huge advantages in terms of
getting results out, seeing your split times, and even uploading your GPS route on to
RouteGadget so you can see where you really went.

Fixtures This fixture list is intended to list all major events in the UK, and all East Midlands events. It includes
all the information available to me about the event at the time of going to press. Details on entry are
normally available on the club sites. Unless otherwise stated, Local events offer entry on the day (EOD)
to a range of colour coded courses with start times from 10:30 to 12:30. Some will provide a wider range
of courses than others. Regional events provide colour coded within which age classes can be run.
National events provide a range of age related courses and are normally entered in advance.
The OS map reference is either the car park or point from which the event will be signposted. The list
is based on BOF registration, but events are sometimes cancelled. If you are uncertain of whether an
event will be on, check with the organiser. The editor takes no responsibility for wasted journeys.
