The weather turned out to be cooler than predicted and was great for our final event in this series.

Many competitors took advantage of the close proximity to the sea and took a refreshing dip.

The series continues to attract more people each year which is encouraging for the organisers.

This new map at Norah Head is the location of the sixth and final event in our series.

A challenging map which has an intricate track network through the local sand dunes along with the normal mix of street and park orienteering.

This event is a short distance from the F3, Sparks Road turn off, so it is very close to both Sydney and Newcastle.

This is a 45 min score event and you can start between 9am and 11am.

From Central Coast Hwy turn east into Bungary Road and the start is in Jenny Dixon Reserve.

We were lucky that the weather wasnt a continuation of the Saturday (40 degrees).

Competitors came from Sydney, Newcastle and the Central Coast with 32 entries consisting of individuals as well as several family groups (teams).

It is great to see so many new faces as well as the old (familiar) faces.

 

Alex Massey collected the most points (460)

Babara Hill and Andrew Appleby collected (430)

Nick Dent and Russell Blatchford collected (410)

Karen Blatchford was just behind with (400)

 

Our next event will be held at Norah Head on the 8th February with start location to be on the CCN website soon.

This event will be easily accessable from the F3 so again close to Sydney and Newcastle.

We hope to see you at our last Sunday event in this series.

 

This is a great location which has close access to the beach and many cafes for a coffee after.

Fine weather welcomed 27 entries to the Central Coast Navsport Series held at Bateau Bay this Sunday 14th December.

It is great to see new faces with people coming from as far away as Sydney and Newcastle.

Another great run by Josh Blatchford with Alex Massey not far behind.

With the finish only metres from the beach many runners took the opportunity to cool off in the surf.

Our Christmas gathering and you are welcome to join us for a picnic after the event, (BYO)

Location of the START is on Reserve Drive just south of Parkside Drive.
