The Big Foot Div 2 were narrowly defeated at Boggabilla Reserve on Sunday despite being minor premiers, whilst Div 1 concluded an unbeaten season and collected the trophy. Outside the team, good runs from promising youngsters Jock Davis and Ben Hanley had Mark Shingler and Andy Simpson checking out their Div 2 options.
In Div 4, the team also kept its record for the season and didn't trouble the scorer. Div 5 beckons.

Another fine winter day in Sydney and three Big Foot kids were out representing their schools at the Sydney North Schools Orienteering champs and they ran brilliantly.
Jamie Marsh came second on the boys course, beaten by one of his Mowbray PS year-mates but also providing a great target for a third Mowbray competitor. After that Mowbray School trifecta Big Foot Oliver McFarlane took out 4th and also helped a fellow Epping Heights PS mate into 5th.
On the girls course Lyra Simpson was the clear winner, but starting first did little to help her Lane Cove PS team mates.

The powerful Russian combo of Fedor Ishakov and Marina Ishakova produced another great Ski-O event this weekend with perfect weather on Sunday morning after an overnight storm had dumped 20cm of fresh powder on the trails. This meant that the option to cut across the trail network was definitely in play and was used by the more successful skiers.

Bart finally cracked orienteering today and placed 3rd in M21 at the NSW Champs, marking the most significant achievement of his life. Chris Froome commented “It’s an amazing position for us,” Froome said. “Bart’s in the form of his life and fully deserves it."
“I don’t think we quite expected that going into today’s stage. I think everyone probably expected Alpe d’Huez to be the more decisive stage, and it might very well still be, but it puts us in a fantastic position ahead of tomorrow’s stage [to Alpe d’Huez].” he continued.

With one round to go, Big Foot has sucessfully defended its Div 1 title after facing down a similarly underpowered WHO team at Darks Common. Like the most worthy English football club, Wolverhampton Wanderers, sucess in 2018 was sealed up with over a month to go in the season.

Blue Mountains netball sprang a surprise on both us and the council with their Sunday comp, hope that you took the opportunity to enjoy their snags.
Today's event was made possible through a lot of hard work by Miles Ellis, who was planner and organiser wrapped into one and also had to negotiate access permission with a new group - we only got the final go-ahead this week. Eoin Rothery popped in en route to Broken Hill to do some controlling (apparently in a suit). The usual Big Foot rabble helped run the event.
Thanks to the competitor who found an old control out there - it has a flat battery, but once we have replaced that we might be able to figure out which event it was from, if it still works.
