Previous news and updates can be found on the news page
Harlequins Orienteering Club is based in the West Midlands of England. Our 'catchment' covers Birmingham, the Black Country, Worcestershire and parts of Shropshire and Herefordshire. We have a membership of over 200 and put on around 40-50 events a year.
What's Orienteering?
Orienteering is an activity/sport (depending how competitive you want to be) which involves
navigating from point to point using a map. Most orienteering takes place in areas such as
forests and country parks, but more urban-based events are becoming increasingly popular.
For free-range kids
Orienteering is very family-friendly and suitable for almost all ages. For children in particular it promotes
self-reliance and independent decision-making, besides getting them out into the fresh air
to burn off some energy. For teachers interested in introducing orienteering to your pupils,
we can provide advice and support. We are Sport England
Clubmark accredited for supporting junior members.
Fancy a go?
You don't need to be a member of any club to go orienteering. Most small-scale local events
are open to all, don't require pre-booking, don't cost much to enter and will have suitable courses
for beginners. You don't need to be super-fit and you don't need much in the way of equipment.
Go to our events page for dates and locations of events.
Come and join us
Harlequins is an open club - we welcome new members. Membership gives you a copy of the award-winning
club journal every month, access to our club forum, the opportunity to run relay events, and more.
Go to our contacts page for details of our Membership Secretary.
