British Schools Championships – 21st November 2004
Around 700 competitors turned out at the British Schools Orienteering Championships, held at Sandringham Country Park. Times, as expected, were fast and winning margins were tight with lost seconds meaning lost places. British Squad Members Graham Gristwood and Helen Winskill were on hand to talk to the competitors and sign autographs throughout the day, not to mention deal with the mammoth task of presenting all the prizes.
