- Last Updated: Wednesday, 10 January 2024 13:38
Orienteering NSW congratulates thirteen members for their 50 years (or more) of involvement in the sport of orienteering as of 2023.
These current ONSW members are recognised for their participation at any level as a competitor and/or official and/or organiser and/or mapper and/or course setter.
They have also been substantially resident in NSW over the period.
Certificates will be presented to these honourees during the Christmas 5-Days, or at a suitable opportunity in the new year.
Various strategies were used to identify current ONSW members who met the criteria for recognition.
This list may well be incomplete – if you think you should have been included, please contact your club.
