Forest Cup 2026
This is a 4-race event shared by the three Auckland Region Clubs – NWOC, CMOC, AOC and WaikatoOC. There will be a points competition across the series culminating in a Series Finale on the 13th September:
There is a points competition with points based on time behind the winner.
There will be a prize giving after the final based on the best 3 scores across the 4 events. Top 3 in all grades will be celebrated.
Enter online or at the event by choosing your course, as usual for Auckland events.
You will be automatically assigned to the most appropriate grade for the course you have entered. See table below.
Some very competitive orienteers may choose to "run up" a course from that of their typical age grade. An example: Someone who is eligible for the M14 grade (which is on the Orange Long course) may choose to enter the Red 3 course and will score points in the M16 grade.
Some more casual orienteers may choose to "run down" a course from that of their typical age grade. They will score points in the open grade for that course.
NOTE: Ages are as of the end of the current year eg M/W10 born 2016 or later, M/W12 born in 2014 or 2015, M/W40 born 1977-1986, etc
