Rules, Appendicies and Guidelines
All events registered with British Orienteering are governed by a set of Rules, and their associated Appendices. Different types of events are regulated by a set of guidelines, each specific to a type of event, which give competitors and event officials information about what should be expected from particular types of events.
The latest versions of the Rules, the Appendices to those Rules and the Event Guidelines along with valuable information for Planners can be found by following the links detailed below.
