The Orienteering USA Board is considering a proposed rule change to club team eligibility and composition for Junior Nationals in 2025. We conducted a test of two possible team and scoring variations during Junior Nationals in 2024:
- In the first, orienteers from the same club who were registered in Interscholastic or Intercollegiate categories were eligible to participate on a club team in their category regardless of whether they were also on a school team.
- In the second, orienteers from the same club who were registered in Interscholastic or Intercollegiate categories were eligible to participate on a club team spanning all categories regardless of whether they were also on a school team.
We want your opinion. Please share your thoughts here. See this document for the full report and the experimental scoring results for each variation.
