South Yorkshire Orienteers are set to host the 2017 BRITISH SCHOOLS SCORE CHAMPIONSHIPS on Saturday 14 October 2017 at Rother Valley Country Park, Sheffield. S26 5PQ, on behalf of the British Schools Orienteering Association. 

All schools are welcome to enter a team to compete at this year’s British Schools Score Championships event being held in Sheffield.  This is a navigational competition where participants score points by visiting as many controls as possible in any order within a pre-specified time limit. 

Children need to be able to read an orienteering map and be confident in using basic navigational techniques, as well as having competed in at least three orienteering events at the appropriate standard for their age.

Children are welcome to attend independently of their school but the entry form must still be signed by the Headteacher.
