Members Training and Coaching Opportunities
Want to get ready for Navdash or bush events? Your friendly OWA coaches have prepared a series of activities for the Summer months to help you reach your goals.
Weekly training is available in Perth based in two areas, one west and one east of the city. Training in the east is on FRIDAY evenings and in the west on THURSDAY evenings, so if you are super keen you can get in two training sessions a week!
All members are welcome to join these sessions, whatever your level of orienteering. Juniors aiming to make the WA Schools’ Team should see completing this training as the start of their preparation.
Details for March - dates, locations and times are noted below. Be sure to put them in your diary! Check the venues and activities for each session on the weekly schedule and make sure you sign up for Enews to get any changes and confirmation of the weekly locations.
