NNC5 and Gordonstoun Sprint

Gordonstoun Regional

We hope everyone enjoyed their run today!  Many thanks for coming and we hope to see you at our next event.  We have one item of lost property - a pair of black Sprayway over-trousers, age 6/7.  Please contact the organiser (andrewandlizcampbell@outlook.com).  Many thanks.

NNC Round 5

Well, Andrew Campbell gave us some great night O last night at Forres Golf Course. Good control placing on a high visibility area meant you had to be sure of the feature you wanted. Hopping the Stile into Muiry Woods changed everything, plenty of paths, not necessarily going in the right direction and a mix of fast runnable woods and thicker blocks with heather to slow you down. Back over the stile to the golf course and nothing visible.... plenty of vegetation blocks but a long way away, outside head torch distance, so compass essential.

Assembly was in the clubhouse, warm and cosy, locker rooms to change in and food available made for a very social occasion. Thanks to Karen Fraser - Organiser, Andrew Campbell - Planner, and Steve Smirthwaite - Controller, for putting on the event, and to Forres Golf Club for allowing us their excellent facilities.

If you liked the Golf Course you'll love our next event at Gordonstoun School, its a sprint with a mix of urban and parkland - entries open NOW at Si Entries, see details on the event page linked in the diary.

Thursday Hill Training

We hold informal hill training sessions every Thursday morning between 09:30 - 10:30 in Forres.  We meet at Grant Park, run for about an hour, usually around Cluny Hill (depending on how energetic we are feeling!) and then enjoy a coffee and chat.

About Us

runner

Moravian Orienteering Club has been in existence since 1974. We are located in the North East of Scotland, where we have access to some of the best orienteering terrain in Scotland.

Our membership come from Moray, Nairn and historic Banffshire. We have a core of active members who orienteer all over the world; some of our members are in Scottish or GB Squads, others have represented Scotland or Great Britain, but the majority are recreational orienteers who love the challenge of navigating and running in Moray's fantastic countryside.

Orienteering is a sport for all the family, ages and abilities, so we aim to be inclusive in everything we do, and provide a welcoming, supportive, and safe environment for all. We encourage participation and involvement in all our events, and want to help members develop as orienteers, with a full range of regular coaching opportunities.

Contact us here:  club@mor.scot

 

Membership

Membership through British Orienteering for 2023 costs £25 for adults and £7 for juniors (under 21).  This automatically gives you membership of Scottish Orienteering.  Membership through Scottish Orienteering alone for 2023 costs £10 for adults and £2 for juniors (under 21).  The sport of orienteering heavily subsidises junior membership because we know how important it is to have young people in our sport.  If your son or daughter is joining, we'd encourage an adult family member to join too in order to help the sport grow in the UK.

Please note that non-members of an orienteering club are only covered under our insurance for 3 events.
