Scottish Orienteering support to clubs to restart the sport

***** Still Time to Apply*****

Please contact Sarah with any expressions of interest or to discuss ideas by 30th June at the latest sarah@scottish-orienteering.org

Funding available to support club development, restart of activities and paid coaching opportunity

In anticipation of widening opportunities to organise and participate in orienteering once again, we would like to invite clubs to apply for funding that will help support them with this. Two funding streams are now open for applications as follows

  • Restart Development Fund
  • Restart Coaching Support Fund 2021

The deadline for applications to both funds is 30th June 2021.

Restart Development Fund

Further details and an application form for the Restart Development Fund are available from the SOA Development Fund page.

Restart Coaching Support Fund 2021

The Restart Coaching Support Fund is a one-off opportunity designed to encourage and support clubs to stage small-scale, simple but frequent, activities and training for their members over the coming months. This fund may be of particular interest to smaller clubs that find it difficult to support frequent opportunities for participation. The following document includes further information about the fund together with an application form.

Any queries about the fund, including ideas for the kind of activities that your club could be planning, should be made to sarah@scottish-orienteering.org.

Expressions of interest for paid coaching work

Linked to the Restart Coaching Support Fund, we would also like to invite expressions of interest from any self-employed licensed coaches that are interested in delivering coach and mentoring support, on an adhoc basis, to meet the needs of funded projects. Please contact sarah@scottish-orienteering.org and your name will be added to a list of potential contractors for the work.
