Safety

Orienteering is an adventurous activity and as such carries certain risks. Minor injuries such as sprains, cuts and bruises are not uncommon. More serious injuries can occur. All competitors must accept this risk and take part in the competition at their own risk. Each competitor is also responsible for their own safety. (BOF rule 1.7.1)
