Congratulations to the following juniors who have been selected to be part of the Scottish Junior Orienteering Squad (ScotJOS) for 2022/23.
The ScotJOS team are looking forward to working with the new squad members to support their orienteering development and we hope to have a lot of fun along the way as well as plenty of hard work.
It was Scotland’s turn to host the Junior Home Internationals (JHIs) and juniors from all over the UK and Ireland congregated in Speyside for a weekend of fantastic orienteering.
Read More…The JIRCs see teams of juniors from the 12 British Orienteering regions go to battle, with individual championships on the Saturday and relays on the Sunday. Each team can consist of 4 juniors in each category of M/W 14,16 and 18.
Read More…Every two years the Scottish Junior Orienteering Squad (Scotjos) organise a 2 week trip to Scandanavia to provide the juniors with the opportunity to experience different terrains and compete outside the UK.
For obvious reasons this has not happened for a couple of years but this summer the squad have headed off to Sweden.
Following the British Championships, Northern Championships and the JK, Scottish Juniors across a range of ages have been selected for international competition and a range of training camps. The performance of all the Scottish juniors at these events was fantastic with some very tough competition from juniors from the rest of the UK and Europe. It was great to see the breadth of Scottish junior talent as well as the fun and friendship they gain from the sport.
