Orienteering NSW - Entries close Sunday for NSW schools champs and NSW MTBO Champs

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.

This is a reminder that entries close on Sunday for the NSW MTBO championships (Aug 9-10 in Dungog) and for the NSW schools championships / State League 12 & 13 (Aug 16-17 in Newcastle).

Schools champs competitors should enter in their age class. Results will also count for State League for those who wish to do so. Start times will be worked out early next week so please scan your form and email it if you cannot get it in the post in time.

For the MTBO champs, if you have entered, your children ride for free. Dungog Common is a fantastic area dedicated to mountain biking and bushwalking.

Organiser Greg Bacon reports: "There are over 200 acres of land with approximately 20km of mountain bike and 4x4 tracks. The area has been used for State MTB endurance races over the last couple of seasons. A full description of the courses is available on the bulletin posted on Eventor.

There is camping available at Dungog Showground on the Saturday night.
