An essential resource for orienteering in the US and CanadaAudience: Resource for physical education teachers, classroom teachers, and recreation and youth leaders to teach the sport of orienteering. Reference for outdoor leaders and park rangers, search and rescue professionals, scout leaders, and ROTC, JROTC, and military personnel.

Discovering Orienteering: Skills, Techniques, and Activities offers a systematic approach to learning, teaching, and coaching orienteering. Discovering Orienteering presents the basic skills and techniques of the sport for beginners, often using stories of orienteering experiences to illustrate the fun, challenge, and adventure of the sport.

Developed in conjunction with Orienteering USA (OUSA), Discovering Orienteering addresses the methods, techniques, and types of orienteering commonly found throughout the United States and Canada. Authors Charles Ferguson and Robert Turbyfill are experienced orienteers with expertise as orienteering trainers and elite competitors. Ferguson and Turbyfill also possess backgrounds in education with a wide variety of teaching experiences, lending to the book’s usefulness as a resource for introducing orienteering within a physical education or youth recreation setting.

Discovering Orienteering begins by explaining the basics of orienteering, including a brief history of the sport followed by information on fitness, nutrition, safety, and orienteering tools and equipment. Following this introduction, readers learn orienteering skills, techniques, and processes, using the OUSA’s systematic teaching/coaching methodology.

Next, readers learn how to apply these skills, techniques, and processes within an event situation. Orienteering ethics and rules are discussed, including the ethical use of special equipment. Information is also included to help readers prepare for and compete in an orienteering event.

Discovering Orienteering: Skills, Techniques, and Activities offers an excellent introduction to the sport for beginniners and a comprehensive resource for educators, youth leaders, and coaches.
