The minutes of the AGM held on May 14th 2011 are now available here.

Interland 2012 is to be held on 22nd April in southern Belgium at Habay-La-Neuve – one of the best forests for orienteering in the Ardennes and previously a World Cup venue.  The Fédération Régionale des Sports d’Orientation (FRSO) www.frso.be are the hosts.

In its only match outside the British Isles, England competes against two Belgian teams (Flemish and French speaking), the Netherlands, the Nordrhein-Westfalische (NW Germany) and the French Ligue Nord–Pas de Calais de course d’orientation (LNPCCO).  The competition is thus a six-cornered match and is truly a team effort spanning age groups from W and M14 to W and M60+: a team of 42.

The Annual General Meeting of the English Orienteering Council takes place on 14th May 2011 at Grenoside Community Centre, starting at 5:30pm. Full details can be found here.

The final team for the Interland event on 6th March can be found here.
