CorkO Training Day: Tir na Spideoige, Inchigeela SATURDAY 7TH MARCH

Post date: Feb 25, 2020 10:16:42 PM

For anybody looking to progress or, improve their open-mountain orienteering, CorkO will be hosting a technical training day on Saturday March 7th. This is especially relevant for those who hope to attend the upcoming Irish Orienteering Championships! 

The technical training event will take place at Tir na Spideoige near Inchigeela. This is an excellent technical area and was last used for Day 3 of the 2018 Shamrock O-Ringen. 

The training will help people get to grips with contours which will be a benefit to their orienteering in general and especially for the Irish championships and provincial championships. The training will be tailored for the participants and is sure to be fun for all.
