Embargoes
Info
To ensure unfair advantage is not gained by people visiting the competition areas prior to competition taking place, an embargo restricts athletes’ access to these areas. All athletes attending these events must abide by these embargoes, and anyone breaching them risks disqualification.
Embargo: Sandy Lake Park (Middle and Long)
Because this area encompasses a public park, access is permitted for limited recreational purposes (i.e. stay on marked trails). However, the possession or use of maps, and route choice testing during the term of the embargo is not allowed. Competitors are encouraged to just stay away.
Embargo: Dalhousie University (Sprint)
Because the event takes place in public areas people may need to access for legitimate reasons other than orienteering, access to the embargoed areas is permitted. However, the possession or use of maps, and route choice testing during the term of the embargo is not allowed.
All competitors must use only the routes specified by the organizers to reach the Event Arena on the day of the competition (to be advised in the final Bulletin).
