Unlike Orienteering in a civilian club, Orienteering in the Army is classified as normal military training. It is seen as a distinct form of navigation training and its value lies in increasing fitness and navigation skills, as well as the development of decision making, mental robustness and a competitive edge. The OTC runs an Orienteering Team which attends events all over the South East of England usually on a Wednesday afternoon. Because orienteering is classified by the Army as military training, Officer Cadets are able to be paid for taking part and free transport will be provided from the OTC to events across the South East.

The RA PSI and the CO run the OTC entries and any Officer Cadet who wants to attend any of the events below should check the ULOTC website the week before for details of timings.
