the qualification races start (for example,<br />

on Tuesday, 10:30am). No cost. By registering<br />

you confirm that your name and result can be<br />

presented on the internet as well as on Radio<br />

O-<strong>Ringen</strong> broadcasts.<br />

Classes<br />

Two classes. DH-12 and DH13-16.<br />

For others who are interested, see below.<br />

Each competition day is independent, and no<br />

combined results will be recorded.<br />

Punching system<br />

SportIdent Air (SIAC). You can run with your<br />

own SIAC-chip if you have over. Otherwise you<br />

can borrow one for free.<br />

Competition<br />

The Bagheera Maze O-<strong>Ringen</strong> <strong>2017</strong> is raced<br />

through head-to-head duels. Challenge a<br />

friend or rival in the Bagheera Maze. There will<br />

be two Mazes this year, identical but mirror images<br />

of each other. Competitors start two at a<br />

time: one has Course A and the other Course<br />

B. Competitors run through the first maze (A or<br />

B, depending on the one you have), come out<br />

the back of the maze to a turn-around control<br />

outside the maze, and then go through the<br />

other maze from the back and then run to the<br />

finish.<br />

This setup gives the public a very clear<br />

understanding of the standings at the turnaround<br />

control and then allows them to see<br />

who is first to the finish.<br />

See the attached sketch of what a maze<br />

map might look like.<br />

Setup – Qualification<br />

Each competitor can run a maximum of two<br />

times (once with Course A and once with<br />

Course B). You can run with anyone you want,<br />

as long as they are from the same class (DH-12<br />

or DH13-16). If there is no one you want to run<br />

with, the organizers will add a competitor in<br />

the vacant spot.<br />

Start intervals will be 30 seconds between<br />

each pair. If there is a lot of crowding, the organizers<br />

reserve the right to change the start<br />

interval.<br />

In order to go through to the Finals, you<br />

have to be fast. It doesn’t matter if you run<br />

Course A or B, since they are the same. The four<br />

fastest boys and girls in DH12 and DH13-16<br />

go through to the Quarter-finals. This will be<br />

announced right after the qualifiers, around<br />

3:50pm (12:50pn on Tuesday).<br />

Setup - Finals<br />

All 16 finalists (8 in DH12 and 8 in DH13-16)<br />

must be in place by 3:50pm (12:50pm on Tuesday)<br />

in the special tent for finalists. If you are<br />

not there in time, you forfeit, and your opponent<br />

moves on by default.<br />

Finals have a knockout format. The maze is<br />

the same as in the qualification races, but the<br />

course is new for each round. The fastest time<br />

in the qualifier (regardless of gender) competes<br />

against the 8th fastest, the 2nd against<br />

the 7th, and so on.<br />

The fastest time from the qualification can<br />

choose their course (A or B) in each round.<br />

Heat order:<br />

1.QF DH12 1-8, 4-5, 3-6 and 2-7<br />

2. QF DH13-16 1-8, 4-5, 3-6 och 2-7<br />

3. SF DH12 1/8-4/5 and 3/6-2/7<br />

4. SF DH13-16 1/8-4/5 and 3/6-2/7<br />

5. FINAL DH12<br />

6. FINAL DH13-16<br />

The winners in each heat in the QF and SF will<br />

immediately go back to the finalist tent and<br />

wait there for the next round.<br />

Radio O-<strong>Ringen</strong><br />

The finals will be broadcast LIVE on Radio<br />

O-<strong>Ringen</strong> from 3:50pm-5pm each day that<br />

the Bagheera Maze is operating (Tuesday between<br />

12:50pm-2pm).<br />

The commentator and speaker during the<br />

Bagheera Maze is Anton Sjökvist.<br />

Prizegiving<br />

Prizes will be awarded immediately after the<br />

finals, approximately 5pm (Tuesday 2pm) in<br />

Radio O-<strong>Ringen</strong>’s studio at O-<strong>Ringen</strong> Square.<br />

Shadowing<br />

No shadowing is allowed in either the qualification<br />

or the finals. On the other hand, shadowing<br />

is allowed during Maze for All times, see<br />

below.<br />

Example of how the Bagheera maze will look like.<br />

Only competitors can be in the mazes, as well<br />

as in the designated areas behind the mazes.<br />

Maze for All<br />

The mazes with finals courses will remain open<br />

until 8pm each evening, but without timing<br />

and results. Anyone can try the Bagheera<br />

Maze! Race a duel against your grandchild,<br />

your mom or dad, or a friend from a neighboring<br />

club.<br />

Several laminated maps will be available at<br />

the entrance to the Bagheera Maze. Feel free<br />

to borrow a map, but make sure to return it<br />

once you have run.<br />
