Arena League – we retain our Leage 1 status for 2023

Closing time for entries into the Wigan Spring Meet is Monday 30th January.

And a New Gala on the schedule for the Ramsbottom Summer Splash

Closing Date for entries is Monday 27th February 2023

Rotgherham have processed the Program and posted on their website – www.rotherhammetro.org – can be printed if you wish together with information on seating and car parking.

The ORCA Calendar has been updated with the events we know of as today – now including the BCM Galas (Open League and Team Sprint)

Where the Gala is at home it will replace the Training session on that day – if the Gala is away and falling on a training day, the plan would be to continue with the training session in parallel.

The Calendar also includes what we know about ATS Galas where we know of them, but these will not be run by ORCA.

This will be updated when dates are confirmed for galas as they are announced.

New Gala out – a bit experimental but trying to use an online entry form

Closing date for entries – 30 Jan 2023

Starter Gala for all new to Open Meets – age 9 on day – we would like to encourage as many to join in as possible – if you are not sure then please discuss with the coaches.
