1. Do I need to be a marathon runner in
order to play orienteering?
It is suitable for you even if the only
exercise you do is shopping. Being able to run fast is an
advantage, but not a winning criterion. Even wheelchair users
will find is enjoyable.
2. Are the trainers qualified and
experienced to deliver the program?
All our trainers are either registered
coaches of the Orienteering Association of Hong Kong or veterans
of orienteering.
3. What equipment do I need?
You only need to put on sportswear.
Getting enough sleep and a clear head is a plus. We will provide
everything including maps, compasses, whistles and timing
systems.
4. Where is it held?
In the countryside, a park, the city, a
soccer pitch, a school hall…
5. Is orienteering dangerous?
We would be lying if we tell you that
orienteering is perfectly safe. All sports have risks. Like any
sport, orienteering may bring about scratches, falls, twists,
cramps. But what we do is to prevent all sorts of risks
imaginable. With our experience, we reduce that into a minimum
through pre-event field trips, on-site trainers during the
event, trainers who are qualified first-aiders, contingencies
for adverse weather conditions, and insurance.
