Bulletin 3 / page 2 1 Welcome
We are expecting you!
Dear athletes,
We have one thing in common: we love the challenge!
The International Orienteering Federation has bestowed on the Canton of Vaud and its Capital Lausanne the organisation of the next World Orienteering Championships. It is the goal of the Organising Committee, over which I have the honour of presiding, to ensure that the most favourable venues for beau- tiful and memorable competitions can be created and realised and to provide the best hospitality for the athletes from all nations. This is our challenge!
By coming to Lausanne you will move around in the heart of a region where sport is king thanks to the In- ternational Olympic Committee and the many international sports organisations that have their headquarters here and the many National, European and World competitions being held in the area year after year. Your personal challenge will be to rise above your potential in honour of your own country and to show ex- citing competitions to the spectators of the country that welcomes you!
Together we have one common aim: to share the passion for our sport which is ORIENTEERING!
We are counting on your presence in Lausanne from 14th to 21st of July 2012. See you soon!

Bulletin 3 / page 5 4 Sustainable Development Commitment
The World Orienteering Championships 2012 are organised in the magnificent region of Vaud, between Lake Geneva, the Jura Mountains and the Pre-Alps with its nerve centre being the city of Lausanne. The organising committee is dedicated to holding an athletic event which supports sustainable development.
Orienteering is a nature-loving sport and, therefore, the WOC represents an ideal context in which to create a sustainable project. It should be 1) economically viable, 2) socially equitable and 3) respectful to the environment.
The organising committee recognises its economic, social and environmental responsibilities. It endeavours, with the support of the Canton of Vaud and the City of Lausanne, to conform to the following principles:
Adopting responsible and consistent operational procedures Raise the organising committee’s awareness of the three above-mentioned components of sustainable deve- lopment that should influence their processes and decisions. The Organising Committee will also make sure that the following necessary and responsible measures will be implemented during the event by the athletes, the spectators and the volunteers.
Protecting the environment Protect sensitive and natural areas, avoid any water pollution and emphasise public transport to limit use of fossil energy and to reduce CO2 emission.
Managing waste effectively Reduce the production of rubbish, encourage recycling and sort the trash.
Favouring regional economy Work with regional businesses and offer local products in the food stands and restaurants.
Raising awareness of the benefits of physical activity for young people Encourage young people to participate in the event and to take up the sport of orienteering as a healthy and sociable basis for their life.
Integrating the population Integrate the event into city life and offer ways for the population to participate and for the local businesses and cultural enterprises to become involved.
Becoming conscious of the need to act differently Raise the competitors’, the spectators’ and the general population’s awareness of the need to adapt their behaviour in order to respect the environment and adopt a sustainable lifestyle.

Accommodation
Teams may choose their accommodation freely but are not allowed to reside within the embargoed area shown on page 19.

Most hotel accommodation includes breakfast and dinner (half board). Please indicate your preferences when booking. Please note that the rates and the availability of the hotels are not guaranteed after May 1st.

Bulletin 3 / page 26 20/21/22 Competition Details
20 Quarantine Zones
There will be quarantine zones for all races including the relay.
In the quarantine zone of all races, athletes will be protected from the elements (rain, sun, heat, wind, etc.). Teams may also bring their own tents if they wish to do so.
21 Start Draws
The start draws will be made according to the IOF competition rules (section 12) under the super- vision of the IOF Senior Event Advisor. The draws will not be open to team officials, athletes or the public.
22 Number Bibs
All competitors must wear their respective number bibs at all the WOC 2012 competitions. The bibs will be handed out at the Team Officials’ Meetings for each separate competition except for the Sprint Final, where the bibs will be available in the quarantine zone.

Bulletin 3 / page 27 23 Punching and Timing / 24 Clothing
23 Punching and Timing System
WOC 2012 will use the SPORTident (SI) system at all the competitions. All SI-cards will be handed out to the team leaders for each of their competitors when accrediting their team. Team leaders must sign for receipt of the SI-cards. A charge of CHF 60.00 will be imposed for any lost or mis- sing card. After the relay, team leaders must return all the SI-cards together at the Event Centre. Each SI-card is assigned by name to each competitor and must be used by that athlete only!
At each start, there will be spare SI-cards on hand in case a competitor has lost, misplaced or forgotten their card.
At each Final race, competitors will wear a GPS-tracking device.
Starting procedures will be as follows: • In the Qualification races each competitor will be started at their assigned start time by a hand on the shoulder • In the Final races a starting gate will be used
Finishing times for individual races will be recorded as follows: • In all the races except the Sprint Final, the times will be rounded down to whole seconds • In the Sprint Final competition, the time will be rounded down to whole tenths of a second
At the technical model event on Friday, 13th July, from 14:00 – 16:00, the punching and timing equipment as well as the layout of start and finish areas will be demonstrated.
24 Clothing
There are no restrictions regarding clothing. Athletes are strongly advised to wear full-length orienteering trousers in the forest races as ticks are very common in Switzerland which carry both the meningoencephalitis virus and the Lyme-Borreliose bacteria.
Wearing shoes with Dobb spikes is not allowed in the sprint events.

Bulletin 3 / page 32 28 Public Events
The Swiss 5 Days Orienteering Event will be offered to orienteers from all over the world, young and old. Athletes should be able to enjoy some high quality competitions and to cheer on the top athletes competing at WOC 2012.
We will provide the best quality maps and course-setting for the Swiss 5 Days. Tom Bührer, World Champion 2003 in the Long Distance, is the head of the course-setting team. The same map making team for WOC 2012 maps is also in charge of the Swiss 5 Days maps. Thus, we can expect excellent and demanding orienteering races.
Day 1, Sunday 15 July Sprint: same map and area as for the WOC Sprint Qualification race: urban with very technical parts.
Day 2, Monday 16 July Normal distance: same area as for the Model Event Middle Distance Qualification: dense forest with varying contour features, large depressions and rocks.
Day 3, Tuesday 17 July Middle distance: same area as for the Model Event Middle Final: Typical Jura forest with vague contour features and rocky sections.
Day 4, Wednesday 18 July Long distance: the only area used exclusively for the Swiss 5 Days and that has never before been used for orienteering! (NO WOC-races here!) This alpine terrain lies between Villars-sur-Ollon and Les Diablerets and is known as a ski resort in winter and a hiking and recreation area in summer. It cannot be reached by car. The orienteering race is being held in semi-open alpine terrain.
Day 5, Friday 20 July Chase start: same area as for the Long Distance Final: fast forest with a dense trail network and many ditches. The most beautiful areas have been selected. The Jorat at 900 m altitude is the largest forest in the Canton Vaud, situated on the northern edge of Lausanne.
Transport: The use of private cars is permitted and sufficient parking spaces will be provided.
However, we encourage participants to use the public transport system and, where it is necessary, our special transport to bring you right to the event areas.
Your registration fee includes a pass to the whole public transport network system for 8 days in the region of Lausanne (www.mobilis.-vaud.ch) and our specially organised transport. It also includes your trip to the prize-giving ceremonies in Ouchy in the evening or any other travelling you might want to do around Lausanne.
In Switzerland, public transport is very reliable with trains and buses usually running every hour or half-hour.
We offer the same pass for accompanying people for CHF 100.00 for adults and CHF 60.00for children. They have to be ordered at the WOC business office before 31st May ([email protected]).
You may find more information at: http://www.woc2012.ch/en/swiss-5-days.
