Team Changes

There has been much chopping and changing to the squad for WOC 2008 (Czech Republic) since January. The sad news is that the team size has fallen to 4 men and no women. Additional members were also included in the squad at various stages to ensure that South Africa field a Relay team.

The final WOC Team is:

Men
Nicholas Mulder
Garry Morrison
Paul Wimberley
Eugene Botha

Team Manager
Ian Bratt

All four competitors are in top form at the moment, as shown in the results at the recent Gauteng Orienteering Champs. In the short distance, the results were Nicholas 1st, Eugene 2nd, Paul 3rd and Garry 4th, whilst in the classic distance, the results were Nicholas 1st, Eugene 3rd, Paul 4th and Garry Dsq.

Fund Raising
The WOC Team (hereafter known as iPENGO) will be organising a fund raising event (aka Paul's beer tab) at Albert's Farm on Sunday 29th of June. Click here to download the event flyer.
