Success at the British Championships

Congratulations to Sheralee Bailey who achieved 2nd place in W45L at the British Long Distance Championships held at Kilnsey Moor in the Yorkshire Dales on 5th May. The terrain was largely runnable open moorland with significant height gain and loss on each course. The start was some 150m higher than the finish leading to some tricky steep downhill legs towards the end of the course. Sheralee was only 18s behind, an excellent performance in terrain well suited to the SYO winner.

Participant Satisfaction Survey

DFOK are pleased to announce that over the coming months we will be working with British Orienteering on an event participant satisfaction initiative to develop our understanding of the participant experience at club events.

Between April and June participants at a selection of events will be invited to share their views and comments via a short survey. The Participant Satisfaction Survey will help us understand participant satisfaction with different aspects of the events, including the courses, facilities, volunteers, logistics and equipment as well as the overall satisfaction with events.

We are looking forward to hearing your thoughts. The comments and insight obtained from your responses will help British Orienteering and the club to identify participant-focused development opportunities and to continually improve these events.
