Clydeside Orienteers is an orienteering club based in Glasgow, Scotland. Most of our membership is concentrated around the north and west of the city, but we welcome members from anywhere in the Glasgow area or indeed from further afield.
Clyde is one of 5 clubs recently invited to take part in the 2010 British Orienteering Club Talent Squads’ Project. As part of this project the club is launching a programme of regular fitness training sessions suitable for members of all levels of fitness, which will be supplemented by a programme of orienteering skills training beginning in 2011.

Starting in October the Club has organised a series of monthly training and information sessions. The aim is to provide something for all club members and each session will include some physical activity plus input from visiting coaches / international athletes.

Orienteering is a challenging outdoor adventure sport that exercises both the mind and the body. The aim is to navigate in sequence between control points marked on a unique orienteering map and decide the best route to complete the course in the quickest time. It does not matter how young, old or fit you are, as you can run, walk or jog the course and progress at your own pace.
