WOC selection races announced

The Irish WOC selectors have finalised the WOC2011 selection process.

The main selection will be based around 2 major events this spring. Including the JK2011 festival which visits Ireland in 2011 for the first time. Also selections will be made at a major event weekend in the WOC areas in France at the end of May 2011. The selectors feel that given the complexed nature of the terrain that will be encounted at the world champs, it will be important to find team members who can meet the ‘special challenge’ of the competition areas.
More info on the France selection weekend will follow.

You can find more general information on the selection process and races and copies of the athlete WOC intention form on the Team Ireland WOC2011blog
