Orienteering Australia values all contributions to our great sport. Here are additional opportunities to enhance orienteering.
One great development for orienteering participation this year will be the establishment of a Participation Committee. We are currently looking for one representative from each state/territory to become the State Participation Coordinator.
The OA Board approved the creation of a Participation Committee at the end of 2024, the duties of the committee can be found in the Operations Guide (1.7). The Participation Committee will assist greatly in the flow of communication from OA to the state/territory organisation and clubs. It will primarily work to implement the Participation Plan and develop a new plan when the current plan expires. The committee will officially meet 4 times per year, and unofficially every other month through the Participation and Engagement Network meetings.
For more information please contact Daniel Stott (Manager, Participation) participation@orienteering.asn.au or your state/territory President or Secretary.
