Plumpton Rocks, Juniors Rock!
There were great results for girls at Plumpton Rocks near Knaresborough this weekend. Emily W16 - 2nd on Green, Megan W14 - 5th on Light green and Kate - 7th on yellow. AIRE club coaches ran pretty well too David Alcock 4th on Mens Blue and Lindsey King 10th on Womens Blue. Well done all!
Looking forward to seeing lots of AIRE juniors at Tankersley Barnsley next weekend for the final of Compass Sport Cup.

Promising Junior performances at major competitions
Congratulations to the 5 Aire Juniors who competed over the weekend of 5/6 June in the Lake District. The areas of Summerhouse Knott and High Dam are physically and navigationally tough. Most of you will not have run in such hard areas or read such a complex map before. The events also attracted the best orienteers from GB as the races were selection races for international events. You should all be proud of your performance!
