We are pleased to announce that this year our competitions will be again co-organized by the Office of Marshal of the Malopolska Region. This institution supports financially the initiatives aiming at promotion of physical education as well as the organization of Malopolska’s various sport events: regional, Poland-wide and international. This time it is Wawel Cup 36. (and some other events organized by WKS Wawel) that benefits from this support. See you in July!

The flags that will wave during Wawel Cup 36. represent Belgium, Belarus, Czech Republic, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Slovakia, Sweden, Ukraine and even… Brazil! We can’t wait for further registrations, also yours!
Similarly to last year, we would like to introduce to you this year’s Wawel Cup organizers and partners. Therefore let us start and present the main organizer, which is obviously WKS Wawel – Orienteering Team. Each year there is about 50 people engaged in the event organization. There are runners, coaches, as well as parents. The profit, which we gain is spent mainly on training. This event is held by runners for runners. While organizing, we try to look at the event not only from organizer’s but also from runner’s perspective, so that your needs are understood better!
Last year we scored 4. place in Polish Club Championship (minimum difference to 2. place), and after many years our youths succeed in European Youth Orienteering Championships. We hope that next season will be even better! You may follow summary of our trainings and competitions on our fanpage: WKS Wawel – Orienteering Team.
