City of Birmingham Orienteering Club hosting many Junior Events

Maze O success!
For a number of years now, the City of Birmingham Orienteering Club (COBOC) have put on a short orienteering course and a Maze O at the Sutton Coldfield Community Games. This was held on 8 – 9 July 2017 and children and adults have the opportunity to take part and learn about over 90 different sport activities, including of course orienteering. This year we had over 500 children and adults go around the Maze O with many expressing an interest in taking up orienteering more regularly. For more information and photos go to www.coboc.org.uk
