Welcome to Orienteering NSW

Orienteering is a sport that challenges both the body and the mind. It's also loads of fun!

The aim is to use a special orienteering map to navigate your way around a course and visit marked check points along the way. You choose a course that suits your age and experience and proceed at your own pace: walk, jog or run. It is a race but you decide if you want to just race yourself or be the next world champion! The course may take you through urban areas, parks, schools, farmland or forests.

Events are conducted weekly across NSW and beginners are welcome at all events.

Big Foot juniors win at NOSH

Alastair George and Ewan Shingler impressed with top ten finishes at the annual Great NOSH Footrace in Sydney on Sunday.

The Big Foot juniors were the first two finishers in the Male under-18 age class, coming in eighth and tenth respectively in roughly an hour and 13 minutes for the 16.5km.

Bennelong Northside junior Tshinta Hopper was the first female under-18, in just under two hours. 

Almost 250 starters fronted at Lindfield Oval for the long but scenic trail run to Seaforth Oval, and it was Jake Stollery who emerged triumphant in 1h9m6s.

Second was Canberra's Grant Bluett from the famous orienteering family, with previous winner Matt Abel third.

The fastest woman was Robyn Bruins, 29th overall in 1h23m55s. Newcastle orienteer Claire Williams was second female across the line and Lindsay Norton third.

Thanks to Bennelong Northside, Bold Horizons and all the helpers. Results are here and the Facebook photo album is here.
