Welcome to Newcastle Orienteering Club

Orienteering is a competitive or non-competitive recreational activity in which participants use a detailed map, and usually a compass, to navigate between checkpoints on an unfamiliar course in bush terrain, parkland or urban areas.  

If you like a physical and mental challenge while exploring the outdoors, orienteering is the sport for you!

As the saying goes “many hands make light work” and this is true for Street-O as well. The most obvious task that we need people to volunteer for is to set a course. Don’t worry if you have never set a course before, there will be people to help at every stage of the process, and of course, without courses there is no Street-O so your efforts will be greatly appreciated. Either talk to a Street-O Coordinator directly (most easily done at an event) or use the Street-O email address if you can help in this way.

If you feel that there is some other job that you can do, either at one particular event or on a regular basis, then that would be greatly appreciated too. Again talk to a Street-O Coordinator directly or use the Street-O email address
