FCC4 M18
The 18-year-old categories were the ones most affected by the change in time of year for the British, since last year it was ill attended due to exam commitments. This year everyone was there and vying for the title of British Champion, as well as the 60 points on offer to the winner.
The course was actually longer than that of the UKCup, proving to be a true classic for the younger half of the FCC.
Oleg Chepein walked away with his second win of the season, over a minute ahead of Ed Kelleher making his debut in the FCC this season. Scott Fr4aser completed the top three with last year British Champion Chris Mitchell lying in 6th.
Duncan Coombs was top first year in fourth and Joe Mercer of AIRE in 5th suggest that YOA may be a force to reckon with this year.
in the overall standings Oleg looks pretty untoppable, with 230 out of a possible 240 half way through the season. Andy Llewellyn is lying in second with Chris Mitchell in third, but Duncan Coombs, Scott Fraser and ben Stevens all have incomplete scores, and all eyes will be on Ed K as well to see what form he has for the rest of the season.
