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.

Our Club Constitution.

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 and friendly welcome to all to come along and participate in our wonderful sport.

Best Wishes

Terry O’Brien, STAG Hon President
