Tayside Orienteers Events for 2013

Below are details of our events for this year. Information about times, courses and entry fees is provided where available. This list will updated through the year as more events are confirmed, so keep checking back for more information.

Some general points to note:

Our events are all BOF Level D (Local) unless otherwise stated. These are generally suitable for all ages and abilities, including beginners. There will always be somoene around to help you if you're not sure what to do. More information on British Orienteering event classification.
For newcomers to orienteering, Score events follow a format of "find as many controls as you can in a set time", while (unless otherwise indicated) all other events follow a classic format of "complete your course in the quickest time possible".
Unless specifically stated, we use SportIdent (SI) electronic punching at all our events. We will have SI e-cards for hire at each event, so don't worry if you don't have one or haven't used one before.
The Tay Grand Prix is an informal club league - points will be awarded for performance at each qualifying event.

This table summarises our fixture list for 2013. When available, there will be a link to each event's page, which will give details of the event and access to results when complete.
