Learn to Orienteer - Port Macquarie

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.

Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.


Space Racing blasts off for 2014

Space Racing, our venture especially for kids aged 8-14, has blasted off in Orange and Sydney.

Goldseekers, our club of the year, last weekend hosted around 20 kids at the Showground on a new map ideal for such outings.

Their next two events are on Saturdays Jan 18 and 25, and with families returning from summer vacation we anticipate numbers will climb as they did last year.

In Sydney, we hosted a small but enthusiastic group today at Curl Curl Lagoon playing fields on a flat, off-road course in warm weather.

For our second Sydney holiday event (Fri Jan 24) we return to Centennial Park - hoping it's not 46 degrees like last year ! 

Assembly is in front of the Education Centre (bottom of grid F4 on the map). Park in Dickens Drive and walk through the forest to the amenities block.

UPDATE: Saturday Disney will be filming a segment with two of our NSW junior reps that morning up in the sandstone ridge area. They may also later be filming participants at Space Racing. If you consent to your child being filmed we will issue them with an identifying wristband, and ask you to sign a consent form. 

As always, any club members who can assist at Space Racing are greatly appreciated - whether it's coaching, shadowing kids around the course, handling rego or putting out and collecting controls.
