Classes @ Regionals

[abd]

Hi
Sorry that this might be a silly question, but my sons and I recently competed at the East Pennine Regional Event @ Ogden Water; we couldnt fathom out why there were White, Yellow and Orange colour coded categories as well as JM1,JM2 and JM3 (which were on the same courses ie White=JM1 etc).

Is this to be the norm at the new regional format events and could someone please help us understand why? It meant that each of my boys werent categorised with all the other people (boys) that competed on that course.

Hi abd

The confusion arises because we are in the first couple of months of transition from one system to another.

Ogden is likely to be one of the last Regional events run under the old system. You are likely to see only colour coded courses from now on, with sometimes non-obligatory recommendations as to which colour course different age classes could run.
