SROCkite.gif (2521 bytes) Virtual Orienteering Challenges for YOU, NOW!


 As we are in a second period of Lockdown we are not able to bring you any SI timed events (we will as soon as we can) but there are a LOT of Virtual Orienteering Courses  using the MaprunF or MaprunG (for Garmin) apps.

These are

Worden Park, Leyland -  a Middle course and a Score course (take the controls in any order) – GPS track downloaded from the UK/Lancashire/South Ribble, Chorley, Preston folder of Maprun 

Astley Park, Chorley – an Easy, a Middle, a Hard and a Long Hard course - GPS track downloaded from the UK/Lancashire/South Ribble, Chorley, Preston folder of Maprun

Beacon Fell, Chipping – a Yellow, Middle and a Score course - GPS track downloaded from the UK/Lancashire/Lancaster, Wyre, Fylde, Ribble Valley folder of Maprun 

Williamson Park, Lancaster - a Score course - GPS track downloaded from the UK/Lancashire/Lancaster, Wyre, Fylde, Ribble Valley folder of Maprun 

ALL the maps can be downloaded for free from the British Orienteering site Go Orienteering/ Permanent Courses/ then filter on NWOA and GPS course. Make sure you download the correct map. You can also get them from me, just email me on Development@sroc.org . I can also answer any queries you have. 

You do not need to be a member of Red Rose Orienteers/SROC to do any of these courses, though of course we would love it if you do join us and your membership will last until the end of 2021!

Safety
Please read the safety advice on the BOF portal for the event in question.

Follow all current government guidelines regarding Covid19

Please be courteous to other users of the area and give them space, even if it means slowing down or stopping.
 

The Autumn Series

We are delaying opening the Simpson Ground Middle course until after the present Lockdown – it’s such a good course and good area that we want to open it when everyone can do it.
