Other important information
Both leagues are for all age groups, although for our younger athletes we would recommend the Oxfordshire League.
There are no entry fees as these are included as part of your club membership, although there may be car parking fees (£4 cash for all Oxfordshire league races / Chiltern league tbc).
Car Sharing is encouraged wherever possible to reduce costs and to avoid congestion at venues.
Club vests need to be worn for all races.
If you have any queries at all about cross country please contact either Ian or Ros who will be happy to help
