Can you see the poster?
Here you are:

In this summer, we are going to organize a series of sprint orienteering competitions.

Looking back to 2003, I was an orienteering novice. What I needed the most is orienteering more to improve my techniques. I was lucky. Aby Lam, one of the top orienteering athletic in HK now,
organized a series of sprint orienteering competitions for the youth called Youth Park Orienteering Tournament 2003. I took part in all of the five competitions, and got the overall 2nd runner up in the class HB. Thanks to Aby, I learned a lot and found my weaknesses.

I would like to do what he did, to let more young orienteers having more chances to practice and improve. I would also like to do more than he did, to let the young orienteers taking part in organizing orienteering competitions. I am sure, they will gain something from it.

The photo below is on 10/8/2003, stage 4 of the tournament. It was my first time being the champion in my orienteering life. The one in blue shorts is Aby Lam. Sitting on the other side, wearing a blue T-shirt is Hei, my organizing partner in the coming Y2Y Sprint.
