Yorkshire Superleague
This event is a counter for the Yorkshire Superleague. Due to the unique nature of Brimham, we want to encourage everybody to pick the course which best matches their appetite for physical and technical challenge. To score points without penalties, simply choose any course of the usual technical difficulty for your age class. See full YHOA Superleague rules here.
M16/W16 to M90/W90 – any TD5 course.
M12/W12, M14/W14** – any course TD3 or above.
M10/W10 – any course TD2 or above.
** Note – there is no Light Green so if this is your normal course we recommend you choose between a simpler Orange, a simpler but longer Red, or the shorter but more technically challenging Short Green or Very Short Green.
Black 4.8km 250m climb
Full technical and physical challenge. Gaffled.
*Please make sure your SI-card can cope - older ones (e.g. red!) cannot as this course has 37 controls!
Gaffled means that 'butterfly loops' will be used to split the field up more: everybody does the same orienteering, but some of the legs in a different order!
Entered: 4
Blue 3.8km 225m climb
Navigationally challenging and increasing in physical difficulty. For experienced orienteers.
Entered: 6
Green 2.8km 165m climb
Full technical challenge. Slightly easier physically: avoids scrambling.
Entered: 4
Short Green 2.5km 130m climb
As Green, reduced climb, avoiding steep exposed locations.
Entered: 5
Very Short Green 1.8km 90m climb
As Short Green, reduced climb, further consideration to those needing a physically less challenging course.
Red 4.0km 155m climb
Intermediate technically, ideally suited to those wanting a fair distance without full on technical challenge.
Entered: 2
Orange 2.9km 65m climb
As red technically - ideal for adult beginners and more experienced children.
