Dear Orienteers: Most Welcome to Join and Follow the 2003 Park World Tour!
Spring Cup first up as a 2003 Park World Tour ranking event
Orienteers to 2003 Tour in Asia through NOC, Pre-WOC, Phone Games and WOC |
|
Three sprints, one medium and one long-distance race will count as ranking
events ahead of the 2003 Park World Tour. First up is the Spring Cup in
Denmark 29/3. The Nordic Open and World Championships sprints are also
among the races which will determine who earns a discount trip to the PWT
2003 series, which will be held in Asia in November.
2003 Tour open to everyone
The 2003 Park World Tour will be organised as a compact series in Asia in
early November, starting with qualifications open to every orienteer in the
world. The PWT races in Asia may include both A and B finals, with the best
B finalists making their way to the A finals in the following race. Prize
money will be awarded in each of these races, as well as to the best
orienteers overall.
Five ranking events in Europe
With the 2003 series concentrated to Asia, PWT has named five
international elite events in Europe where orienteers can earn ranking
points and thereby a discount trip to the Tour in November:
1) Spring Cup Classic, long distance - Saturday 29/3, Hillerrd, Denmark

2) Nordic Open Championships, sprint - Thursday 1/5, Malmkoping, Sweden

3) Pre WOC Challenge, sprint - Saturday 24/5, Altstatten, Switzerland

5) World Championships, sprint - Tuesday 5/8, Rapperswil, Switzerland

Discount trips to the 15 best
The 15 best women and the 15 best men in the main elite classes or A
finals of the above events will be awarded points according to the PWT
scoring system (No 1 = 25 points, 2 = 20, 3 = 17, ...15 = 1).
Summing up all the points from the five races, the final ranking will
determine the price of the trip to Asia for the top orienteers. The top 3
women and top 3 men will receive a special price for the Tour, while
positions 4-15 will guarantee a discount price.
Enter by 30 June
If you fail to make the top-15 in the ranking list, this will not prevent
anyone from joining the Tour itself. The Park World Tour 2003 series in
Asia will be open to every orienteer in the world, as long as you enter by
the deadline of 30 June, 2003.
The points earned in the ranking events will not count in the PWT 2003
classification as all participants in the Tour in November will start from
zero.
More details regarding the PWT series in Asia will be published in March.
