Final Announcement for the Selection of the 2008 JWOC (Junior World Orienteering Championships) Team.

The selection will be made following the Flying Pig A event the first weekend in April 2008. For the first time the Male/Female Varsity results from the Interscholastics will be included in the ranking this year for M/F 20 which are the rankings that are used in the selection of the JWOC team. Anyone wishing to submit a petition for consideration for the team must have it and all of the supporting information to me by the Flying Pig weekend in order for it to be considered in the selection of the team.
