ESOC
Edinburgh Southern Orienteering Club
ESOC is a fairly large and very active orienteering club in East Central Scotland. The age span of members is over 70 years and we offer something for everyone whatever their age, fitness or orienteering skill level. We organise a regular programme of local orienteering events, regular junior coaching sessions, weekly club training for members and monthly club socials. In addition, we organise larger orienteering events at district and national level, some of which are further afield in Scotland. Why not come and join us?

You do not need to be a member of a club to participate in orienteering, but joining an orienteering club brings many benefits. As well as information and social events, membership gives contact with people who will share their enthusiasm for the sport, and their experience, giving support and guidance when needed. If you wish to join ESOC, you will be very welcome.

We try to arrange coaching sessions roughly every 6 weeks outside main holiday periods. General format of the sessions is a group warm-up; split into different groups for coaching; all get back together at the end for a punching relay (which the adults usually win!). Within each session, we plan individual coaching activities at all levels from white to green so can accommodate everybody.
