What are the costs
Event fees for Standard events
Includes OY series, other foot orienteering and MTB orienteering events.
Event fees are charged per individual, with maximums applicable for families and teams. All participants are entitled to a map.
All PAPO events have the ability for pre-entry which is preferred for all entrants to ensure we have the correct number of maps printed. Pre-entries for standard weekend events close on the Thursday evening prior. Member fees are available for pre-entries only. Limited entries on the day are available, but will be charged at non-member prices for both members & non-members.
