It was fantastic to see 247 people logged in to the second part of British Orienteering's two-part webinar mapping series showing there is a real desire from our members to get involved in driving our sport of orienteering forward in this crucial way.
Along with supporting documents, the webinar is now uploaded onto the British Orienteering website in the Training and Support section of the webinar page here. Other useful material can be found on the Mapping page here.
Thanks to our four experts; Martin Hore (Suffolk Orienteering Club), Simon Starkey (Leicestershire Orienteering Club), Ben Mitchel (Swansea Bay Orienteering Club) and John Moody (Cornwall Orienteering Club) who clearly presented where to get base material and how to set up a map.
Their methods and top tips were greatly appreciated as reflected in this participant feedback:
British Orienteering would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all for attending! We would also like to thank all those who have contributed to the delivery of British Orienteering's webinars especially over the last year. The guest speakers who have presented and shared their expert knowledge have covered a wide range of different topics which have been beneficial and inspirational to us all.
