Welcome to the University of Manchester Orienteering Club (UMOC)
Orienteering is a fast paced sport involving navigation to get through a series of controls as fast and (more importantly) as correctly as possible. Many races take place across the UK each weekend, with many variations. You will never run the same course twice!
All that is needed to start is trainers and clothes that you don't mind getting dirty and you can move easily in (normal jogging clothes). We also offer technical training for all levels through a local team and their coaches.
Most events (local) are free and no equipment is needed to start apart from enthusiasm to try something new!
If you wish to join us on our travels around the country, then contact the captain, accessed through the club information section of the web site.
