Pre event info

EVENT CANCELLED AS A RESULT OF COVID-19 EPIDEMIC.

The orienteering event will be preceded by a training session at 10.00. Newcomers, juniors and members are invited and there will be plenty of tips and advice from our friendly bunch of coaches.

Please let Junior Team Manager Will Heap know if you will attend. The session will end by 11.00 latest in order to leave enough time to start the orienteering event by 11.30am.

SOG Series Info

SOGs are friendly club events where children and newcomers are very welcome. Yellow and Orange courses are suitable for children to run on their own with a bit of practice. Adults are welcome to shadow children until they are confident to go on their own. Green and Blue courses are run or walked by any age group - you can race competitively or just enjoy the woodland.

There are two series of events - autumn and spring of approximately 8 events each. Electronic timing (SI) is used.

Help on the day always appreciated.
