The EditorThe Irish Orienteer

Dear Joh,nI wish to comment on a short article in TIO No.43 entitled"Propo.anda War Hots Up". 1 am unclear a8 to where the proposandacome. from, or for that matter, which Club is offerins enticementsto new members. Yes, our Club Notice Board does bave a notestatins "New Members Welcome". We are aware that a larse numberof people enjoy orienteering without beins members of any Club.The lOA recognised this with it's directive on entry fees at events.When non-members come to an orienteering event they should be madeaware that there is a choice of Clubs and information should befreely available, when requested. I am not aware of anysoliciting and in any event new-comers make up their own minds onwhat club to join.Obviously the 'organising Club at an event has the hightest profileand as such may attract potential new.members. I can not see 8problem with other Club Notice Boards, although a location thatdoes not compete witb the organising Club's displays would beexpected.

Yours sincerely

Dear John,

.I would like to comaent on two points raised in TIO No 43. The firstis in relation to Maure Thornhills letter on prizes for M and W lOs and 11s. Giventhe current situation in our society with c~etition between young people for placesin colleges, jobs etc., T thir.. the idea of "collecting trophies" for WINNING atorienteering events should at least be de-emphasized in order not to add further tothe already considerable stress placed on young people.

Participation at this age should be emphasized as the most desireableaspect of the sport and not who comes first or second. It is the participation thatmust be encouraged and rewarded. Maura mentioned giving a memento to all who finiah.This io a great idea and perhaps should be considered seriously in the future. Itwould encourage more participation by young people and remove the WINNING/LOSING aspectwhich is highlighted by pr.ize giving in Us conventional sense., It i.smy opinion thatany young person [or ony person of any 8gB for that matter] who picks up a map andcompass and heads into lhe woods io a winner. Prizes are not necessary to highlightthis. In relation Lo "Children ---hanging around events while their parents competeand help", why not jnvovJ.e them more in the planning, preparation and runninq ofthe avents , In this way young people are genuinely involved and have a sense ofbelonging, which can improve their chances of successfully facirlC~and overcoming Lhechallenges that Life will present to them. By encourageing & rewarding participationwe may keep young people interested and have them there when, as older orienleers,serious compettition (and prizes) have a more fitting place.

rhe second point is in relation to Una Creagh's intereoting article on theMourne Mountain Marathon. Una was critical of the accuracy of Lhe grid references.1 thought it stran!)p thet the o'ga;'lizc,·suf a preat Iqrous event like this would aJ Lowthis to happen, (or would they?). In Lonk inq at the "Mourne Country" 1:50,000 mapconsider the following. A six figure grid reference shows the co-ordinates of thebottom left hand (South West) corner of a 100 meter square on the ground.

5

The control description lies somewhere within this 100 meter square, andnot exactly at the point of intersection of the Eastlngs and Northings indicat~dby t.he grid reference. On the .up itself this square lIIBasur-es4.- x lua (2_ x2-. on the 1:50,000 .up). Could this be what actually transpired with the gridreferences or were there actual errors as Una stated. It would be very interestingto know.

ThMlk you for taking the ti-a to read this letter. I look forward to r10every two 8OOths. It is very informative and generally an equally good read •Continued success to you with it.

LOOKING WEST

The most urgent news f' r-omConnachl j s thet the venue of the1990 Connacht Championships hesbeer. moved slightly, from UnionWood to Ba11ygawley, contrary tothe information 1n the entry form.Event Controller Frank Ryan(Weslern Eagles) was unhappy withsome aspects of the old Union Woodmap and opted to move thecompetition to nearby Ballygaw18Y.

The Connacht OrienteeringCouncil has a new Chairmen inStephen Ryan who thus becomes amember of the lOA Executive, TheConnacht Secretary ls still Baldurven Lew, Gortadooey, Claregelwey.Co. Galway (091-98068).

The All-Army Championshipsnext spr"ing are planned for arevised map of Union Wood andBallygawley, outside Sligo, andConnacht are hoping to host the1992 Irish Championships in Co,Galway,

IRISH LADIES DISQUALIFIED

Reading recent reports on theWorld Championships it becameclear that the Irish Ladies teemhed been disqualified from theReley competition as a result offinishing in a time greater than 5hours. This ignominious fetebefell Ireland, Austria,Yugoslavia and the USA, whi Le thefourth leg runner for Japan wasn'teven let st.ert.

The ladies courses were allslower than expected, so to breetthe 5-hour cutoff they had tofinish j.n less thaI) 34.1% moreth!!m the winners, while the men,with a 7-hour cutoff, only had tofinish less than 70.7% slower thanthe winners,

Agein this year, teams withearly runners disqualified wer"en'tallowed to run their four runners:whyever not? This happened to theIrish mel)'6 team at WOC '87 inFrance.

Surely this isn't the bestway to encourage the weakercountries? Whet's the point insending a women's team at ell ifthis rule is to apply? As"Orienteering North America"commented, we are effectivelybeing told "Yes, we want you tocome to the WOC so we can call it8 World Championship, even thoughyou're not really good enough tocompete with us",

IRISH TEAM SELECTION : A PROPOSAL

As a recently retired selector tthink the Irish team selection procedure is in need of review.While I believe that we had a good tsarn in Sweden and that our procedure produced the mostcompemive trial ever staged I think thaI the selectors failed to convince everyone of the fairness oftheir methods. The problem was that we agreed to take into account 'selection events' throughout theseason, while a sizeable group thought that a 'sudden-

~OMPE~ITIVE ORIENTEERING

Some ideas and recommendations on the development of senior Irish teamsby Colin DunlopOBJECTIVES FOR THE '90s

1. Concentrate on the Ward Home Iriternationa1s and other international eventsJased in the U. K. and Ireland.Z. Encourage, help develop and organise Juniors to continue in the sport.3. Set-up a workable format for Selection, Communications, Finance and Training.4. Foster team spirit.I. WHICH INTERNATIONAL EVENTS

The Home Internationals offer the most realistic cbmpetition for Irish runners,giving them a reasonable chance of challenging for the top ten places in theirclass.Participation in the W.O.C. is justified only on the grounds of keeping IrishOrienteering visible to the F.I.O., and as a reward to Irish runners for goodperformances at local levels of orienteering. Its value as a means of improv-ing Irish performances lS non proven. It is expensive and a drain on our verylimited resources and a financial burden on those selected on the team.RECOMMENDATION: Wholeheartedly support home internationals for the next three

years and do not enter for W.O.C on the next two occasions,after three years review the situation.

2. JUNIORSThrough the dedicated work of individuals in each Province, juniors are ~eingwell catered for at present. Improved performances are obviously resulting.This work must be continued and encouraged by the I.O.A. and N.I.O.A.RECOM'~ENDATlON: :~ore financial help and support by actively recruiting othu

dedicated helpers/organisers/coachs. Keep the continuity.Bring juniors into appropriate international competition asearly as possible.

3. MANAGE~lENTThe crux of the problem faced by senior Irish Teams are Selection, Communication,Finance and Training. Also leadership and organisation.RECOMMENDATION: a) Selection: Senior Team selection is the responsibility ofthe F.I.O.A., as part of fostering an all-Ireland approach to the sport.Apparently the F.I.O.A. has been functioning only intermittantly! Team selection.is an important and urgent matter, it is suggested that whatever the situationof the F.I.O.A., the I.O.A. and the N.I.O.A. should each nominate a Selector/TeamManager. Their mandate will be to meet, decide on policy and action wi th theauthority of their associations. Having two Managers should help to ensure therewill always be at least one available to attend Internationals etc. Similarly,travel should be reduced and channels of information easier to use. The Se1ector/Managers should meet with the Provincial committees to request their help inproviding information on likely squad members.b) Provincial committees should nominate a person to act as information gatherer.

c. The two National Selectors should meet in August annually and decide onwhich International events Ireland will enter. It;s essential they thencommunicate this infornlation to everyone!Based on the information given by the Provincial committees, and there own goodjudgement the Selectors will select a squad as early as possible before theinternational.Eligible and likely Irish team members residing abroad must be advised that ifthey want to be considered for selection they must advise the Selectors oftheir progress/results on a ~/3 monthly basis.

d.

e.

CommunicationsAt teast 6 weeks before the International the Selectors must advise team membersof arrangements, cost, subsidies and any other information available.There is an obligation on team members selected to advise the Selectors ofavailability immediately they are informed of their selection.

c. At least 3 weeks before the International a meeting of team members andselectors should take place to diseminate as much information as possible.

a.

b.

d. Some form of newsletter should also be circulated.Finance---I.O.A. to allocate a budget annually, no matter how small 1 N.I.O.A. to alsoallocate funds, if possible using any appropriate grants availb1e for suchpurposes. Special fund raising efforts are not the Selectors task, teammembers should be encouraged in this direction!TrainingSelectors to nominate a number of events as training events, where squadmembers will be requested to run on courses which approximate most closelyto the courses they will run in the international.Much closer liaison with the Irish Hill Runners Association, to avoid fixtureclashes and perhaps to nominate hill runs for special stamina building.

4. TEAM SPIRITThis important element is difficult to develop in an individual sport, itdoes however, make a difference to performances,especial1y in relays.

Appoint a team Captain for the year to help facilitatecommunications and establish a team identity.I.O.A./F.I.O.A. provide "0" suit tops only, on a on loanbasis for international events.Organise as many as possible informal get-togethers amongteam and selectors.

The foregoing is just a framework which might be worth trying. It requirestuning, adjusting and attention to detail.Team members and Selector/Managers want satisfaction and enjoyment from thesport, I believe only better organisation will help to achieve this aim.

RECOMMENDATION:

though, and the climb to the start Wf,\fl worthwhile as it reduced thees c errt on the courses considerably, In retrospectl the courses wereinsome cases a bit too long: earlier in the month, ot the LeinsterChampionships in Glendalough, the story hed been "You thought that wostough - wait till you see Gortinl", For those of you who missed theevent, another chance will come at next year's Northern IrelandChampionships in September.

Next doy 0 FermO specialty, 0 Score Relay. All competitors hoveell controls overprinted on their maps and hove to get a certainnumber of pOints each, depending on their age class. As soon as youhave the appropriate score you come ba~k and hand over to your nextrunner, and so on. Great fun, and no hassle with complex coursecombinations, Vannos, Farsta or Motala systems, or what not. Teamswere entering up to the last minute as long as there were pre-markedmaps.

I suspect that the above targets will scare some juniors.However, if you want to achieve excellence in Orienteering, youmust aspire to muscular fitness and Cardiov8Hcular performance.If it'S any consolation you are also likely to acquire a well-

17shaped and attractive budy, ~s well as enhanced life qualiLyand possibly even an extended active lifetime!

However, I cannot overemphasisc that physical trainingshould be enjoyable.

18 ..,. .y.SHAMROCK O.RINGEN 190EntrIes have already begun to arrive for this event and we

look forward to hearing from the Irish applicants. A word ofcaution, however, there is obviously a limit to the amount oflocal accommoda tion - gue st-h(}ul:I~I:I,hu teLa and I)ullk/br~!ikra!j (;houses - and the simple system of first-come first served willhave to apply. The earlier you book the nearer you can be tothe event cen~re.

For recent major events, there haa been a trend towardsvery large numbers of last minute entries. Now we will bendover backwards to afford everyone Q run, but you must enter inreasonable time if you wish to ensure the staging of acompetition in your own clasR. With a large number of coursesover 3 daya, we cannot wait until one week before thecompetitions to see 1f there are sufficient entrants to ensurea competitive class.

And now for the good news - the terrain is very goodindeed and will ensure a continuation of the technically highstandards associated with this event. The planners are BrianCorbett, Rory Costelloe and Sean Cotter and they hope to haveall mapa completed before the end of the year.

This year, there will be a creche faCility available atthe Event Centre. We must have names and numbers beforehand toeneure that we can cope.

There will be a Ceili on Saturday night, and a C&W danceon Sunday night.Entries and Competition Enquiries to 8ernard & MargaretCreedon, Mount Prospect, Douglas, Co. Cork. Tel: 021-361824

A businesslike meeting which discussed the following:Membership, Finance, Fixtures, Training & Mapping.Nov. 19th Beginners Event in Newbridge.Thanks to Posters (60) - NorthSide News, WestsideNews and the Fingal Independent the event was verywell attended.

MULLAGHMEEN EVENT: The event on October 15th was very successful withover 200 competitors from all parts of the country (from Belfast to Cork!).We hope Lag~n..Valley Orienteers enjoyed their day in Mullaghmeen fortheir Club Competition. Over 25 Setanta mombers help~d with running theevent. The results are published i,nthis edition of TIO.

MOUNTAIN MARATHON AGAIN: We have discovered where the two controls gotto. They were picked up by an Irish Army team who were on a navigationexercise in the Glen of Ymaal. Obviously we encroached into the Militarylands. Thanks to a prominent ECO member for owning up!KILLAKEE MAP: The third edition of this popular map has been printed andis noticeably less green than the previous edition. By the time these notesare read, our League event on December 3rd will have been held on the newmap. Now that tbis task is completed, we can get on with mapping new areas,which have not progressed 88 quickly as planned. We plan to make up forlost time in the spring.

Western Eagles have increased thair memb'Brl;ihip over the pest fewmontl)s with the arrival of Frank Stamp from Holland. Frank, who nowworks for D1gi tal, is a one-time Dutch decathlon rEiocc'rdholdQr and istaking to orienteering like a duck to water - literally. as he seemsto have an attraction for blue areas on the map. Speaking ofottraction, John Walshe has announced his engegement to MichOilla, endonce they have stopped playing with the new house we might see themout orienteering again. John, who finished third in the Croagh Potr1ckrun over the summer, had a nasty fright in Union Wood some weeks ago.He woe lunching at No. 9 when he heard a voice say "Excuse me, butwould your name conceivably be John Walshe?", and there in the fieldwas a large white horse! Anyway, to cut a long story short, John thenfollowed this horse, in true "High Spirit" fashion and, yes ... gotlost: good one, John, most of us blame the compass!

Well, what about some news from the clubs ...

HILL RUNNING: There are many enthusiastic hill runners in the Club. Atthe recent prize-giving function, Bobby Buckley got tbe 'Best Vet' award intbe Leinster League while Stephen Walsh came 4th overall in the lrisb andLeinster men's open.LEINSTER LEAGUE: We were not made aware of any cbanges to tbe format of thepresent Leinster League. TIO 42 reported - "The Leinster League will be runon mucb the same basis this season as last" and "The idea of colour events forthe League still hasn't been taken up: Leinster await a directive from theirTechnical Officer before this will be considered". Hence the Croghan Kinsellaevent in September was run to the prescribed standard.

Lough Key Orienteers have found a new solution to making apermanent course ... Cathal Creagh has been seen, hammer and chisel inhand, carving cont rols ont 0 boulders. Romance has 01 so hi t LKO wi thGeorge "this-sport-has-no-respect-for-neither-man-nor-beast" TaylorlOOking for the address of one-time UeGO Secretary Emma Shaw-Fortune.Emma was forced to emigrate to Germany after a rather embarrassingincidel1t with her club captain (or was it club Lt.) at the arts Balli!The less sa1d about this the better, right Steve?

UCG continue to spread the word of orienteering wit.h meetirlgs oreVents held weekly. (Deep meaning discussions on the morality andSpatial dimenSions of orienteering are e t so held every night in theback room in Freeney's over pints and Leonidas chocolates!) Best oflUck to Mick Deasy on his Tiglin O-Leadership cours",' this goes someway to explaining why he asks innocent first years to follow him intothe forest to see something that pOints to the NorLhl?1
