Monday evening sessions

These will normally go ahead whatever the weather. Any change to plans will be posted here. You should, therefore, bring suitable clothing and footwear and dry stuff to change into afterwards.

Here's the link to Day 1 of August's Scottish 6 days competition which was on the screen at last week's club night.  This competition had well over 3,000 taking part.  Take a look in particular at the routes on courses 10 and 16.

In readiness for the event on 24th September (see here) here's a link to a previous event in Sefton Park. You can take a look at the map and the various courses - White, Yellow, Orange, Light Green and Green. The courses get progressively harder as you move through the colours.

Which features would you use to successfully navigate round the Yellow course?

Orienteering map symbols

Official orienteering maps use symbols recognised internationally so whether you limit your orienteering to Crosby Lakeside Adventure Centre or plan on travelling further afield you'll be ok if you know these.

Good turnout despite weather

Thanks to all those who braved the wet and windy conditions tonight at Crosby Lakeside Adventure Centre. Looking forward to seeing you again next Monday.  Bring your friends too.

As promised, look out for links over the next few days to Route Gadget for a previous Sefton Park event - next one is Saturday 24th September (details to follow shortly) - and one of the Scottish races I did last month.  There'll also be a link to orienteering map symbols.
