[email protected] May 2011 May 2011 “He saved the life of a Swedish Orienteer‛ This is the amazing story of James Brown and his heroic actions 30 years in Sweden. PAPO’s Vivien Bloor explains: “James Brown is very close Bloor family friend (particularly my brothers, Robert and Roger). Our home (Leeds) in the 1980's was the training, resting, eating base for the top orienteers at the time (my brothers included). My Dad (Jack Bloor) coached quite a few of them. They went on to do fab stuff at the WOC's over that time. James Brown was one of these talented top orienteers. James is now very debilitated by MS. William and I caught up with him at a local sprint O event last July in UK where he was watching his daughter compete. He has difficulty standing, balancing and talking. He is a very talented artist, but now unable to paint or draw. He is the most incredibly optimistic, kind and positive person. It does not surprise me that he jeopardised his team chances to save a man's life. My brother, Roger, was at the same event in Sweden with James. The article was in a Swedish newspaper and spotted by a friend who lives in Stockholm. She kindly translated it for me. “ Unknown British hero comes forward, 30 years after the drama in the tiomila (100 km) forests. When James Brown was 19, he saved the life of an opponent during an orienteering competition “the tiomila” (ten mile). He became an unknown hero. He himself was so embarrassed by getting his own team disqualified that he sneaked away before anyone got chance to thank him. It was 30 years before he revealed why he had disappeared. “The team thought I would be a big asset, and then I messed everything up for them instead.” In 1981 the weather was really terrible at the beginning of May. The ten mile, in Tranbygge, north west of Stockholm, was a tougher test than usual. It was cold, and wet snow fell heavily.

  • The Using of Modern Technologies in Orienteering
    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. Souhrn Článek se věnuje představení a přínosu moderních technologií využívaných ve sportovních odvětvích orien- tačních sportů v porovnání s dobou minulou, kdy tyto technologie ještě využívány nebyly. Moderní technolo- gie se zasloužily o rozvoj orientačních sportů, toto sportovní odvětví zatraktivnily a to jak závodníkům, tak i široké veřejnosti. Zařízení SPORTident, Trac-Trac, Emit a Racom přináší okamžité výsledky a umožňují on-line přenosy výsledků trenérům, závodníkům na shromaždišti či divákům u televizní obrazovky.
