The Avon Schools league is an annual competition open to all
schools in the area. It is a series of 8 Sunday morning orienteering
events held throughout the year in which competitors score
points for themselves and for their schools.
Orienteering
is an exciting sport which provides a tough mental and physical
challenge to the competitor as they use a map to race around
an unknown area of forest or moorland. The sport is perfect
for people of all fitness levels as you can compete at your
own pace. It is a great way to explore the countryside and
a good way to learn map-reading and decision-making skills.
Through
the Avon Schools League you can find out more about your local
orienteering club and take part in national competitions like
the British Schools Championships. From there, who knows where
it might take you!?
Leigh Woods 2008
Provisional scores for the Leigh Woods event (5th Oct) have now been posted. Be aware that these are subject to change, particularly in the Primary age group where we have a number of new schools and competitors.
