ESOC Leads the Inter-Club Championships after four rounds
The Edinburgh-based club is taking advantage of the early rounds of the championship being in their local area, and a large contingent of their members in regular action is racking up the points for their total. FVO remains in second place in the Large Clubs competition, and Interlopers has overtaken MAROC for third place.
In the Small Clubs division, ELO maintains its place at the top of the table, but it was a good weekend for Roxburgh Reivers as they closed ELO’s lead to within 4000 points, and STAG, who have overtaken TAY for third place.

Scottish Orienteering is keen to help facilitate opportunities for youngsters to try out orienteering at summer camps in various locations around Scotland, especially in the lead up to WOC 2024 in Edinburgh. To help make this happen we need a team of people who are interested in paid coaching work over the summer to get involved with delivery of the activities. No specific coaching qualifications or prior experience of delivery are necessary as we would help get you trained up with the relevant skills.
Ahead of the 2022 Scottish Night Championships due to be held on the 12th February at Braid Hills (Edinburgh) organised by ESOC, there have been some amendments to the rule and guidelines for the Scottish Night Championships. We have published the rules and guidelines here
