Irish Trail-O Champs 2011

It's been a while since my last Blog, although I suppose I could have uploaded my CompassSport report from WTOC.

Anyway, this weekend sees a return to Northern Ireland for the Irish Trail-O Champs for the final British Ranking event (and hence selection event) of the 2011 season.

Most of the top British and Irish competitors will be there. Notable exceptions being Irish team members Wilbert Hollinger and Steven Gilmore who are sharing the Planning duties and Clive Allan. Alan Gartside is Organiser so I suspect he won't be competing either.

Ian Ditchfield will be keen to hold on to his top position in the rankings and for either of us to improve our rankings we have to be top Brit (due to the vagaries of our ranking system).

Results, maps, etc will appear here in due course:

STOP PRESS: I have passed the next phase of permissions for a British Trail-O Champs on Newborough (Anglesey) in mid-March. More news shortly on this.
