The IRF has updated their proposed entry criteria for World Rogaining Championships from 2012 onwards based on the experience gained from the 2010 WRC entry process. A copy of the proposed new criteria can be found here - WRC Entry Criteria For Comment.

The IRF are seeking as broad as possible input to, and comment on, these proposed criteria from the worldwide rogaining community. Accordingly each State is requested to distribute the attached within their membership, possibly by way of their website, and invite interested members to comment.

All comments should be directed to the IRF WRC Manager Lauri Leppik at email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

The 2010 Australian rogaining championships will be held in the magnificent Snowy Mountains and hosted by the ACT Rogaining Association. The course will be set by national rogaining champions, David Baldwin and Julie Quinn, and will provide excellent navigational challenges in a beautiful environment. Terrain will vary from alpine ash forests, through snow gum woodlands and granite boulderfields, to open plains. Please see http://act.rogaine.asn.au/arc2010
