Event Summary

Rescheduled Second event of the 2021 Northern Night Cup.  Note start times have been adjusted to provide one minute per runner as the courses are the same, with a cut off for the short.

Initially entries were set up for Long/Medium, however NNC decided on Long/Short designations, we have adopted these so if you entered medium it is now called "short". The courses themselves have not changed. Also because of the use of a cut off you can decide on the night which course you complete either will be competitive no matter which you entered.

If the new date is not possible to attend please contact the entries secretary for a refund - take out brackets paul(@)mor.scot

Entries are currently CLOSED - if there are many cancellations then we may re open them as maps have already been printed.

There is only one map, so if you are taking a long time/get tired/bored you can cut off after control 12 and complete the Short course competitively.

Terrain

Culbin was planted between the wars to stabalise shifting sand dunes; the resulting open pine forest on complex topography is perfect for orienteering.

COVID-19

COVID-19 Guidance (Updated May 2022)

The SOA has issued the following updated COVID-19 event guidance with effect from March 2022 for Clubs to follow.

  • All competitors must not attend an orienteering event if they have symptoms or test positive for COVID-19 (even if they have received two doses of the vaccine and a booster) until they have completed their period of self-isolation.

  • Entry on the day (EOD) at events and activities is permitted but clubs should encourage physical distancing around registration or results displays even when outdoors. 

  • Clubs are to avoid close packed (less than 1m separation) groups of people even when outdoors.  Such close packing has been known to occur around both registration and results displays – it can also occur with helpers at registration and download. 

  • Indoor public spaces may be used for events and activities, but current face covering regulations must be followed and behaviours such as improved ventilation, provision of hand sanitiser, adapting layouts to encourage social distancing and encouraging the use of face masks to reduce spread should be adopted.

As a result, Moravian will continue to make hand sanitiser available for use by competitors and volunteers at the registration and download areas. 

Competitors are asked not to form close (less than 1m separation) groups at events (be it outdoor or indoor), particularly around registration and download, and are encouraged to minimise contact with SI boxes, including Clear, Check and SI AIR test boxes, and the download equipment.

Where indoor/enclosed spaces are used which have restricted air circulation, Moravian will adapt layouts to maintain at least 1m segregation and encourage competitors to wear a mask.

Important Information

Safety and Risk: A comprehensive risk assessment will have been carried out by the organiser, but participants take part at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety during the event. You MUST report to download by course closing time.

Insurance: If you have joined an orienteering club, or are competing in one of your first 3 events, then you are covered by our public liability insurance.

Privacy: when participating in our events/activities your name may appear in the results section of this website or in newspaper reports. Read our Privacy Policy to see how we look after your personal data.

Hired timing chips (Si-Cards, dibbers): We provide loan of these if you don't have your own but if you lose it there will be a £30 charge for its replacement.

Membership

Membership through British Orienteering for 2023 costs £25 for adults and £7 for juniors (under 21).  This automatically gives you membership of Scottish Orienteering.  Membership through Scottish Orienteering alone for 2023 costs £10 for adults and £2 for juniors (under 21).  The sport of orienteering heavily subsidises junior membership because we know how important it is to have young people in our sport.  If your son or daughter is joining, we'd encourage an adult family member to join too in order to help the sport grow in the UK.

Please note that non-members of an orienteering club are only covered under our insurance for 3 events.
