West Midlands Urban League
The West Midlands Urban League (WMUL) is a series of around five urban events over a calendar year. This is an individual competition open to orienteers from all over the country, not just West Midlands clubs. The series is coordinated by Rick Roberts; scores and standings can be viewed on the WMUL site.
