EPIC XC NPS 12th July 2009 - Marshalls Needed

Hello everybody.

This years EPIC, Cross Country, National Points Series Race is on the 12 July in Djouce.

There will be a Sports race, then the Catagories will follow.

We will need marshalls for both sets of races. The ideal marshall will do both, but you can race Sports and marshall the Catagories, or vice versa,

So if volunteers could PM me with the following that'd be great;

A) Full name,
B) Mobile number
C) Sports and/or Catagories

Cathal

Meanwhile a few questions for those in the know.

Do we know the course yet? Is there a map?

What times will the various catagories be going off at?

How long do we expect the race to take?

Who has the radios, and could I get them a few days before the race?

I have the course in my head..Alan will supply me with a map and I will draw the course on it.
Al has the radios..Liase with him.
11.00 start for the under 8/10/12s
12.00 start for the Sports/U/14/u16
1.30 Elite men
1.31 Elite ladies
1.32 juniors
1.33 Experts
1.34 Vets
1.35 masters

at the moment due to farming issues we are going with parking in the commons across te road from the middle car park and having the timing and admin in the middle car park.
This is plan A
Plan B will be Farmer Michaels field, but he can't confirm till the end of June. Then it becomes Plan A.

we are going for a 28 Minute lap of 2 laps for Sports, 3 for everybody else and 4 for Elite men.

so 3.30 should see the end of racing

4.00 should see the prizegiving commence.

I'll talk to you on Thursday about the course and how many marshalls..

Grand, talk to you then.
