Event course and team evaluation:

Control points will have numeric code – both on the map and in the control descriptions. When you multiply the first digit of the code by ten, you´ll get the point value of that particular control point (minimum 30, maximum 90 points). It is up to you how many control points and in which order you visit.
A control point will be marked with regular orienteering white-orange flag 30×30 cm, SI unit with code of the control and red and white ribbon. When punching please wait for acoustic and visual signal of the SI unit. If the SI unit does not work please write down a letter code from the red and white ribbon.
Final ranking of teams will depend on the total score achieved. When the points are equal, the lower target time decides. If the time limit is exceeded, 20 points will be deducted for each minute of delay. If the time limit is exceeded by 30 minutes or more, the team will not be evaluated.
The best 2 teams in MO, XO and WO categories are automatically prequalified to the WRC 2021. Winning teams in Open categories gain a certificate of free start at the 2nd event of the ČAR serie 2020, Lost in Tojnarek’s Sudetenland (team has to compete at the same team composition).
