Better late, than never: Metroleague Wrap up!

The Metroleague final was held on 31 August at Cecil Hills, but unfortunately Uringa wasn't in the mix for medals this year! 

Once again the Metroleague events took us to various interesting parts of Sydney and it's a great way to spend a Sunday morning with some orienteering and socialising. Our Club Captain with Captain's hat and all (maybe he can get hold of a bomber jacket or something next year!!), Ian, did a great job with organising the teams as much as he could in advance, with of course the always occurring last minutes changes. 
I am sure, all will join me to thank Ian for a job well done!!
Uringa had 4 teams which were competing in Divisions 1, 3, 4 and 5 with many different club members making appearances.

Here are the final results after 6 events:

Division 1               4th
Division 3               3rd
Division 4               5th
Division 5               4th

I found another interesting section in the ML results overview: there is now an individual medal, which is awarded to the person with the highest points aggregate in each division. To me it looks like someone has heaps of time up their sleeve to keep this tally!! Having said that, I thought I'd do my own statistics and work out which Uringa member(s) took part in the most ML events and who got the most points for the club (across divisions)! I clearly have too much time up my sleeve too!
And the winners are:

Competing in all 6 events:
Finn Mackay
Jim Mackay
Shane Doyle

Won most points for club:
Finn Mackay (well done, congratulations!)
