Following advice from the Scottish and UK Governments – and working closely with British Orienteering – orienteering events across Scotland will continue this weekend, 14-15 March.

This is a call to action as we announce that the AGM (and Junior AGM) date has moved to 14th June to follow on from the TAY SOUL in North Muirton, Perth. We welcome any proposals from clubs as well as nominations/applications for our vacant Director posts on the SOA Board. Most importantly we want all members to be involved.

Scottish Orienteering is looking for a volunteer to lead the Scottish Elite Development Squad (SEDS).

Thank you to all the members (a lovely 600 of you!) who completed the Gift Aid declaration, in December we reclaimed £3,531! Many thanks to our Finance Director, Ben Hartman for doing all the paperwork on our behalf.

The SOA Board of Directors would like to welcome all members to attend our AGM which will take place on Saturday 6th June as part of STAG‘s Giant Weekend in Glasgow.

As we come to the end of 2019, the Scottish Orienteering Association’s President, Richard Oxlade, gives an update on the SOA’s strategic plan as we look forward to the next five years. You can read this in the latest issue of SCORE, or below.

You can now download the December issue of Scottish Orienteering’s magazine – SCORE – with print copies set to be in the post in the New Year.

At the Scottish Orienteering Association we need your help – and that of every member from the past four years – to help us raise funds from Gift Aid.

If you haven’t yet given your input on the competition calendar review, please give your views by Monday 21 October! You can read more about the background of the review below.

Minutes from the 2019 Scottish Orienteering Extraordinary General Meeting – held at Dreghorn Barracks on 22 September – are now available to download.
