  • JSP 660 Sport in the UK Armed Forces Part 1
    cos JSP 660 Sport in the UK Armed Forces Part 1: Directive JSP 660 Pt 1 (V2.3 Feb 21) Foreword People lie at the heart of operational capability; attracting and retaining the right numbers of capable, motivated individuals to deliver Defence outputs is critical. This is dependent upon maintaining a credible and realistic offer that earns and retains the trust of people in Defence. In order to achieve this, all personnel must be confident that, not only will they be treated fairly, but also that their families will be treated properly and that Service veterans and their dependants will be respected and appropriately supported. Sport makes a significant contribution to the delivery of operational capability; indeed it is a core activity in the UK Armed Forces. I am therefore most eager to encourage the active participation of all ranks at all levels of sport. I am aware that the majority of sport is organised by Service personnel on a voluntary basis; knowledge of, and access to, the necessary regulation of activities can be difficult. This important document brings together the policies for, and detailed guidance on, the conduct of sport in the UK Armed Forces. I commend it to all your staff involved in sporting activity and in particular to your sports association officials who deliver sport at and above unit level. Lt Gen James Swift Chief of Defence People People Functional Owner i JSP 660 Pt 1 (V2.3 Feb 21) Preface How to use this JSP 1. JSP 660 is intended as a statement of policy on the conduct of sport in the UK Armed Forces.

August 1999 Internet Auftritt rund um das Schweizer Team Marcel Meier / Peter Mohn WOC 99 - News Schweiz bleibt hinter den Skandinaviern, erzielt aber viele Ehrenplätze. Die Schweizer Bilanz der WM in Schottland wird durch die Bronzemedaille von Alain Berger im Klassichen Einzellauf überstrahlt, wo das gesamte Männerteam eine starke Leistung bot und grosse Erwartungen für das Staffelrennen weckte. Der vierte Staffel-Rang ist sicher solide, wer das Rennen mitverfolte weiss, dass viel mehr dringelegen wäre. Enttäuschend verlief der Kurzstrecken-Lauf aus Schweizer Sicht. Dem Frauenteam waren im Vorfeld der WM grosse Medaillenchancen in allen Disziplinen eingeräumt worden. Trotz etlicher solider Leistungen mit Rängen unter den ersten zehn blieb aber ein Exploit aus. Der fünfte Rang in der Staffel war etwas unglücklich. Erfreulich sicher die Bilanz der WM-Neulinge Simone Luder, Käthi Widler und Matthias Niggli, die sich alle sicher für die Finalläufe qualifizierten und im Bereiche ihrer Möglichkeiten liefen.

    The using of modern technologies in orienteering Michal Frainšic1, Petr Špicar2, Ludmila Fialová2 1 Department of Outdoor activities, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic 2 Department of Pedagogy, Psychology and Didactics of sport, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Char- les University, Prague, Czech Republic Abstract The article deals with introduction and contribution of modern technologies used in a sport branch of ori- enteering sports in comparison with the past when these technologies were not used. Modern technologies contributed to expansion of orienteering sports. They made this branch of sport more attractive for both - com- petitors and spectators. Facilities like SPORTident, Trac-Trac, Emit and Racom transfered on-line results from race to competitors and spectators, who are in the race center. Thanks to those facilities spectators can also watch the race on-line on TV or on the Internet. Program OCAD made the preparation of orienteering maps and tracks faster and more effective. Modern technologies also speeded up the process of race preparation. Key words Emit, OCAD, Oorg, Open Orienteering Mapper, Purple Pen, Orienteering organiser, orienteering, orientee- ring sports, Racom, SPORTident, Trac-Trac.

  • Orienteering
    Orienteering Orienteering is a sport that combines both a physical and a mental element. The basic idea in orienteering is to proceed from course start to finish by visiting a number of control points in a pre-determined order, using only a detailed map and a compass. In order to choose the best possible route, orienteers look at the characteristics of the terrain, and the winner is the person who completes the course in the fastest time. Orienteering is unique in that an orienteer must navigate and make quick decisions while running at high speed. ••• Annual orienteering events include: • World Orienteering Championships • Junior World Orienteering Championships • World Masters Orienteering Championships. The International Orienteering Federation (IOF) • World Cup series is the international governing body of the sport • 100+ World Ranking Events of orienteering. The IOF governs four orienteering disciplines: 20-fold World Regional Championships take place foot orienteering, mountain bike orienteering, Champion Simone Niggli, in five out of six IOF Regions: ski orienteering, and trail orienteering.

  • Maps for Different Forms of Orienteering
    MAPS FOR DIFFERENT FORMS OF ORIENTEERING László Zentai Eötvös Loránd University, Pázmány Péter sétány 1/A H-1117 Budapest, Hungary [email protected] Abstract: Orienteering became a worldwide sport in the last 25-30 years. Orienteering maps are one of the very few types of maps that have the same specifications all over the world. Orienteering maps are special, because to make them suitable for orienteering the map makers have to be familiar not only with the map specifications, but also with the rules and traditions of the sport. The early period of orienteering maps was the age of homemade maps. Maps were made by orienteers using available tourist or topographic maps and only after the availability of cheaper reproduction techniques started the process of special field- working. The International Orienteering Federation (IOF) was formed in 1961. The Map Commission (MC) of the IOF has introduced different specifications for the official disciplines (before 2000 the ski-orienteering and foot-orienteering were the only official disciplines). The last version of the specification, the International Standard for Orienteering Maps (ISOM) was published in 2000 and included specifications for foot- orienteering, ski-orienteering, mountain-bike orienteering. A new format, the sprint competition, required new map specifications (ISSOM) which were finalized and published in 2007. The aim of orienteering map specifications is to provide rules that can accommodate many different types of terrain around the world and various forms of orienteering. We can use the experience of the official disciplines for developing new specifications: the official disciplines and formats were developed in the past 30 years (most of them are even newer).

    July 11, 2019 PRESIDENT’S LETTER Covering The White Winter World When the Eastern Slope Inn in North Conway, N.H., hosted the first organizational meeting of the Eastern Ski Writers Association in September 1962, the focus was clearly on covering skiing, then best defined as alpine downhill. Today if you write, blog, broadcast, photograph, video, Tweet or Insta to cover a winter sport or leisure pastime that occurs on snow, you’ll find a home at NASJA. Yes, we’re talking about you competitive or non-competitive alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, dog sledding, ski jumping, ski orienteering, snowboarding, snowshoeing, uphilling, fat biking, even snow dancing. Snowmobiling not so much, but we’ve expanded the definition of snowsports in the past, and can do so again as popular leisure activities change with the times. We service the needs of our readers, viewers and online users with news and information they can use to decide how to spend those precious few hours in the white winter world when they’re not sleeping, eating, working, doing housework, in school, or dare we say, zoned out in front of a screen. NASJA members take pride in helping the North American consumer get the most out of their free time, a most treasured commodity. So if you’re a journalist who covers snowsports, help us make NASJA your organization, one that services your needs best. - Jeff Blumenfeld NASJA President WELCOME PETE PA NDOLI, NEW NA SJA TREA SURER The NASJA board is pleased to announce the selection of new treasurer Pete Pandoli, from Moseley, Virginia.
