In 1982, St. Andrew’s Orienteering Club (Glasgow) was formed in the East End of Glasgow with the primary purpose of making Orienteering a more accessible activity.

By producing maps & hosting events, setting up permanent facilities & facilitating schools’ involvement we continue to promote Orienteering as a
Sport For All & a Sport For Life.

Contact us at: info@stag-orienteering.co.uk

We do a phenomenal amount of orienteering & continue to pioneer how Orienteering can be embraced throughout education.

In 2023 we + Arranged 3 Score+ Events in January + Hosted the Scottish Heat of The Compass Sport Trophy at Faskally and a month later the 1st Scottish Orienteering League Event at Errochty Forest. + Continued to liaise with Local Authorities to support our work especially in the field of Education especially South Lanarkshire and East Dunbartonshire Councils.
+ Our Dark Park Series was completed in March.
+ Supported World Orienteering Day in May.
+ Hosted Spring and Autumn Series of Evening Activities/Events. + Hosting DU'O' - Team Sprint Relay in August at Cuningar Woodland Park. + Hosted 24th Glasgow Parks Champs in December.

Busy as ever finding new areas, both urban and terrain in which to offer Orienteering To All !!!!

Formed in 1982, we continue to provide new and innovative ideas to stimulate local and Scottish Orienteering.

Although Glasgow and Lanarkshire is the weekly hub of STAG activity, because of our links with the former Faskally Outdoor Centre, near Pitlochry, the Club has mapped several areas in Perthshire. This has maintained and enhanced our Club's reputation a major contributor to Scottish and British Orienteering and gives STAG a credibility within the sport.

I once again extend a warm & friendly welcome to all to come along and participate in our wonderful sport.

Best Wishes
