Planning Courses are now available!
We are offering an opportunity to take part in an orienteering planning course aimed at adults and older juniors. The course will consist of two evening sessions on Thursday 14th May and Thursday 11th June at 7:30 pm in the Coach building at French Weir. It will cover the ‘basics’ of planning that apply equally to a JOG or a national level event, reinforced by detailed exercises focused on white to orange/light green standard.
QO success at Yeovil Half Marathon!
Our runners aren't just good at orienteering - they are also good at getting PBs too! On Sunday 29th March, several QO members travelled to Yeovil for the Half Marathon and 10k.
The 2026 JOG season draws to a close
The Broomfield/Fyne Court event marked the end of the Spring Term and the overall 25/26 JOG season. Over the season we had over 80 different competitors completing a total of over 300 runs. With many new families enjoying our sport this heralds a bright future. Thank you to all you Planners, Controllers and Organisers who have made this happen, and our gratitude to those behind the scenes, Jeff for his expert results calculation and Phil and Ollie for their website support.
We will have some summer JOG specials and the new season will begin in September – watch this space.

February Roundup
