Euromeeting

Euromeeting is being held in Switzerland over 25-26 September, with Switzerland also due to host the World University Championships in 2022 and the World Championships in forest disciplines in 2023.

There is a Middle Distance Race on 25 September with a Long Distance on 26 September, both in Alpine terrain predominantly at over 2000m altitude.

British Orienteering is keen to offer international experience to some of our older junior athletes, particularly as they have missed out on the opportunity to gain such experience at the Junior World Championships in either 2020 or 2021, and as a result a number of M/W20 athletes originally named to the 2021 JWOC team are included in this team.  Congratulations to them and to all athletes selected.
