Welcome
Orienteering Wellington is looking forward to welcoming all year 7-13 orienteers from across New Zealand to the Wellington region for three days of high-quality orienteering from the 19th-21st July 2024. Join us and showcase your navigational skills, support your friends and create lasting memories in unique terrain.
What’s New
- Results are found here: https://www.oevents.nz/nzss2024/results/
- Bulletin update: bulletin 2, version 2 is available with a change log of updates.
- Please read Bulletin 2 carefully. It contains essential information for participants and team managers, including a “No whistle, no run” policy for the long and relay (as part of our health and safety planning), and a requirement to contact us urgently if you are bringing a coach or bus to the events (via nzssc24@wellingtonorienteering.org.nz so we can organise parking for you).
