British Orienteering is offering 4 orienteering away days for junior members aged between 12-16 years. This is an exciting opportunity for junior members to attend and experience a day of coaching and take part in adventure activities at various locations across England and Wales in October 2017. Juniors must be able to orienteer at orange level or above.
Supported by JROS the orienteering will be delivered by experienced British Orienteering licenced coaches.
