This Weeks Events
Two events this weekend a come and try it with Bishopstown at Tramore Valley park and also the continuation of the Maprun urban series with Waterford Orienteers.
Both the Sunday events have courses for both beginners and experienced orienteers. The Thurles event will be using the phone app MaprunF, which needs to be downloaded before you set off. More details on how it works can be found here.
Newcomers are most welcome at both events. Be sure to dress for the outdoors as the weather has turned autumnal and there’ll be helpers to show you the ropes (from a safe distance)!
Orienteering is the perfect sport to try during these socially distant times as you can participate on your own or in your own family group. It’s perfect for runners, walkers or joggers. At all events there will be someone to give you some guidance.
Don’t forget to register online for all events! Details can be found on each of the fixtures.

Please keep an eye on social media for any changes to fixtures as our planners and controllers will be conforming to the ever changing government regulations.
