Nations Cup win for Scottish BHS TREC Team
Wednesday, August 30, 2006
A triumphant Scottish BHS TREC team has returned from the British Championships having won the Nations Cup, held at Lowther Park near Penrith, Cumbria.
Following the orienteering section on the Saturday, there was a very mixed bag of results with Scotland having some great scores, but also some lower scores.
However, the control of paces and the PTV (cross country course) on the Sunday led to some great performances and a victory for Scotland.
Chef d’Equipe Robert Oliver said: “I was very pleased with the 100 percent commitment from all the Scottish competitors whether they were in the team or not.”
Individual successes for the Scots saw Kate Ellison win the Level 3 Individual Championship with Scottish riders Sheila Watson and Alex Wells coming second and fourth within that class.
At Level 2, Heather Adam was second individual and Viv Little and Wendy Kyle second pair. Ian Macalindin was 2nd in the level 3 pairs and Jenni Free second in the level 4 individual event.
