About Score-O courses
Score-O is a navigation race format in which checkpoints are scattered over an area.
Each team visits as many checkpoints as they wish within the time limit.
Different checkpoints have different point values, and the winning team has the most points.
Ties are broken based on who finished faster.
Each competitor has a map with the checkpoints marked on it, and a clue sheet describing the feature at each checkpoint and the point value for each one.
Teams are welcome to race hard -- or to go at a comfortable pace and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
The USA will host the World 24-hour orienteering (“rogaining”) championships in 2014, and the score-O format is a great introduction to rogaining.
Benefit:
This special event is a fundraiser for the USA Junior Orienteering Team.
