Orienteering Official Training
posted on Apr 11th, 2020 by Oliver
We are planning an online session over Google Meet for an O-100 Orienteering Official preparation on Wednesday April 22nd at 6PM, please RSVP to [email protected].
Orienteering, in the classical sense, is “cross-country running using a map and a compass.” Often called “cunning running” or “adventure running”, this is a thinking sport where you have to navigate a preset course of “control” locations in a park or forest using only your map, compass and your wits.
We are pleased to announce our new youth orienteering program for boys and girls 10 to 14 years old. Over the course of 8 weeks participants will enjoy the outdoor adventures of exploring trails, finding objects, and cross country running while learning some map reading and navigation skills.
Interested in orienteering but don’t know where, or how, to start? Or do you want to enhance your navigation skills? Join us at one of our Beginner or Intermediate Clinics.
Orienteering is a fun and educational sport. We offer school programs and orienteering events for schools at various levels and coaching workshops for teachers and group leaders.
If you are planning a company outing this summer, consider orienteering for a unique and exciting alternative to typical corporate excursions. Not enough time to get outdoors? We can bring orienteering into your office as well.
