Organisers Comments

Thank you for coming along to the Bramshaw event. I was a little concerned that the conditions may have been detrimental to your orienteering experience but many of you enjoyed the courses and the wet and the mud!

As always much appreciation to the SOC helpers who made the event run so smoothly. Sorry to the control collectors who had to endure the awful conditions at the end of the event.

Thank you all.

Planners Comments

The time between starting and finishing the planning process brought about a number of changes to the event area! Changes that, underfoot, were not reflected on the map - intermittent streams constantly flowing, small marshes got much bigger, paths 'morphed' into streams and some rides became muddy traps for the unwary!

Recent storms also brought down a number of trees which needed to be circumnavigated making route choice options more tricky.

Moral for the event. Hope for the best and plan for the worst especially when nature is an active participant!

Attached are the Open and Age Graded tables up to and including event 8. Andy Snell leading in both tables. The recent SOC event at Lymington was event 11 in the series, so the league table results are a little adrift. There are 4 more events remaining in the series with the next hosted by WSX at Corfe Mullen on Monday 2nd February 2026, followed by the SOC night event at Hursley Park on Thursday 19th February 2026.

Wessex Region Night League Lymington Results

By Colin Hicks , 23 January, 2026

The event went ahead in the cold and rainy conditions.
Thanks to Kevin Bracher, Roger Pleasant and Bill Davidson for helping me to get the controls out there, and to Alistair Moir and Tim Gray who also helped to get them back in.

Other thanks to Steve Sutch with the computing and to Mark Light for his help with the map and doing the Racesignup stuff.

Thanks for the nice comments on the map and planning, and on the choice of pub. The food and beer both very good.

The results show I just about got it right with no one getting all the controls, but Alan Blanchflower got to within one control, and thanks to all who took part in the adverse weather conditions.
