Orienteering season will soon be in full swing. I already mentioned that the YOA Junior Program will be starting on Wednesday, April 28, but I should also announce that the Yukon Orienteering Team is getting started on Monday, April 26. The YOT includes juniors AND adults. See below for information about the Adult Group.
The Yukon Orienteering Team offers older juniors more frequent practices and a greater focus on training and competing than our regular Junior Program. Afan Jones and I are really excited to be working with 13 talented young athletes.
Red Group – Advanced Course (15-20 years old)
- Colin Abbott
- Lee Hawkings
- Kerstin Burnett
- Kendra Murray
- Jennifer Mackeigan
- Dahria Beatty
- Adrienne Hynes
- Trevor Bray
Orange Group – Intermediate Course
- Pia Blake
- Hanna Wirth
- Caelan McLean
- Natalie Hynes
- Leif Blake
Adult Group
There will also be an adult group, which Forest Pearson will be leading. The intention is to provide our competitive adults with an opportunity to train as well. The only prerequisite is that the participants regularly run advanced courses–doesn’t matter if it is Elite or 75+. It is not too late to register for this group.
