CompassSport Trophy – Affpuddle, 22 February 2026
Wimborne Orienteers (WIM) will be hosting our South‑West CompassSport Trophy qualifying round at Affpuddle, near Dorchester, on Sunday 22 February 2026. This is the main national inter‑club competition for clubs like QO, with juniors, seniors and veterans all contributing to the overall team score.
It’s a brilliant club day out in quality forest terrain: everyone runs a normal colour‑coded course, but your run also scores points for QO against other South‑West clubs. You don’t need to be fast or very experienced – a big turnout of QO vests is what really makes the difference and creates a great club atmosphere.
More details (finalised start window, travel plans, how to enter, and which age classes run which course) will follow once WIM publish full event details and entries open. For now, please:
- Put Sunday 22 February 2026 at Affpuddle in your diary
- Think about family and friends who might enjoy a first bigger event
- Watch this chat for a call‑up and entry instructions from your club captain
