Yvette Baker Predictions

[J.Tullster]

Chasers have got some good runners, and a badger, unbeatable! Just promise him a couple of stellas and he'll fly round.

[Rhys]

DEE could be some ones to watch tho some key runners (apparently) have other 'commitments'. Think they'll be there or thereabouts.

[Stodgetta]

381 entries so far....who are the predicted century scorers?

[gg]

errr not sure if i'm going out yet, there is a party....

[Lucy J]

SO will be having a good bash at doing well! But AIREs young stars are looking good and it makes no difference which courses you score on

[Jess]

***WE'LL BE BACK TO GET YA***

Nite nite...

[Rich]

Think It'll be between NOC and AIRE. NOC may have problems with the younger age groups. Hopefully we an take a big team and take our trophy back .

[harry]

Ah NOC haven't been the same since 2001, they lost their best runners after that year eh Rich? But i still think the next generation can show the other teams their MASTERY on the speedy terrain.

"Nottingham juniors navigate free
the nottingham junior squad are we
Hilary Dave Pauline and John
they are our coaches and this is our song"

dag-nam-it i can't remember the verses, something about punching quickly and finding controls and stuff. to the tune of the wombles of wimbledon. hehe anyway enjoy the YBT.

[lilywhite]

Why doesn't it surprise me that NOC came up with a song like that?

Answer: you're sad bastards.

Come on Chasers!

[Mrs H.]

I think the structure of the competition makes it very hard to call. if it was a straightforward club with the strongest junior section, then on present form Aire should win - but the situation when you can get burly young men blatting round yellow and orange courses massacring the best little girlies means that it could be quantity over quality, given that i think Walton Chasers may be in with a good chance as they will be able to field a large number of the occasional orienteers who haven't got gold standards - simply because they haven't got to travel far.

[Stodgetta]

I'm going to disagree on that one! Sorry Mrs. H. Almost all our occasional orienteers who haven't got gold standards are under 12 years old! We have some very good M/W 14's and 16's who are either injured, or running green because they have gold standard but won't be able to compete against top 18's and 20's. I'll let you into a secret - we won't have counters on all 8 courses
I still think we can do it, tho'. Go Chasers!

[Mrs H.]

Mmm! some interesting insider information there! in which case the scales could tip towards NOC if they can bring over loads of school kids. On the other hand Stodgetta could be hustling ha ha ha

"Nottingham juniors navigate free

Making good use of our map and controls
punching them quickly, thats what we're told
Hilary, Dave, Pauline and John

Can't believe I can still remember that

[harry]

yeah that's it!!!

somewhere in the world there is a video of us age c.12 singing that somewhere near Norwich.

Lilywhite: Dredging up the old bitter rivalry (hehe). Maybe the current crop of Chasers can succeed where you lot failed.
ah... banter ( -sorry private joke)

..making good use of the maps and controls.. la la la...
