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.

Craigs dominate O'Shea 2019

The Craig family from Newcastle cleaned up at the 2019 O'Shea 2-days on the Central Coast in a closely-fought tussle over 3 runs at the weekend.

Father Stephen and son Alvin (pictued with CC president Robyn Pallas) took out the Long Pairs division, while mum Martina and daughter Rebecca came third in the Short Pairs.

The 55 entries were dominated by family teams: Bennelongers David McGhee and son Clyde winning the Short Pairs, while Garingal couples Toni Bachvarova and Andrew Smith (third in Long Pairs) and Peter Fozo and Aniko Fozo-Kertesz (second in Short Pairs) were also among the awesome cake prize winners.

Big Foot clubmates Andrew Brown and Nicole Mealing were second in the Long Pairs. 

The opening event was a Saturday afternoon relay at Kincumber Moountain, the night event was at Mt Penang and the Sunday morning team score event was at Kincumber.

Overall results can be viewed here. Thanks to Central Coast for another great weekend.
