The Fantasy UK Cup has returned for 2008 letting you be the manager by choosing a team of 10 orienteers to pick up points over the UK Cup season. Not only will your entry fee help by raising money for the British Orienteering Squad Support Fund, you'll have a chance to win some great prizes thanks to our title sponsors Compass Point , along with CompassSport and Nopesport.
The support fund offers small grants to athletes with World Class potential who come up with their own plan for self-organised training camps. This fund has in the past helped young orienteers to push themselves further, contributing to the medal-winning success of our current team. In 2007 several potential stars received grants, and applications are currently being considered for 2008.
So support British Orienteering and get your entries in quick, there are only a couple of weeks left until the UK Cup Season begins and your team of runners starts scoring points for you! Why not tell all your club-mates and organise a prize for the highest finishing club member? Or else organise a team full of all the top runners at your club to see how they fare against the fantasy elite teams? You're welcome to enter more than one team, so get started on choosing your runners.
For full information, rules and details of how to enter, find out more over on the Fantasy UK Cup pages.
