World Orienteering Day 2019 - 20 days to go!

The aim of the project is to increase the visibility and accessibility of orienteering to young people, increasing the number of participants both in the schools’ activities, as well and in the clubs’ activities in all countries of National Orienteering Federations, helping teachers to implement orienteering in a fun and educational way and to get more new countries to take part in orienteering.

Jenny Nilsson, Project Manager for World Orienteering Day at the International Orienteering Federation, comments:
"World Orienteering Day 2019 is on the 15th of May, but you can organise an event during the time period from 15th - 21st of May and register it as a WOD-event.  There is still time to pre-register a World Orienteering Day event for 2019.  
The World Orienteering Day website has a wide range of promotional materials to use such as bibs, diplomas, flyers, posters, start cards, beach flag and banners."
Thank you for your contribution to the sport of orienteering! "
