Edith Cowan University, Mt Lawley

Welcome to the first NavDash event for 2024! This event will take place on a Sunday morning on ECU's Mt Lawley campus. Entries are now open on Eventor.

NavDash, also known as sprint events, feature short courses (2–3.5 kms), usually held in a small, compact area with complex features, such as the buildings and passages of a university campus. 

More information about NavDash events can be found on the OWA website, including NavDash event guidesprint orienteering tips and a sample sprint map.

NavDash event maps contain features which must not be crossed or entered, even if it is possible to do so. Some out-of-bounds areas are more obvious (e.g. garden beds) but some do not have physical boundaries (e.g. around cafes) so read your map carefully! Check out a sample legend with uncrossable features for NavDash/sprint events, and make sure to check the legend on your map at each event!
