Swedish brand Haglöfs has announced that it's to extend its
kit sponsorship of the British orienteering team for a further two
years.
That means that the 50-odd members of the senior and junior GB
Orienteering Teams will be using Haglöfs clothing while on
official squad duties around the world. Orienteering is, say
Haglöfs, becoming increasingly popular in the UK with the
British Orienteering Federation now having over 12,000 members.
The firm's support is particularly apt given that the sport is
massively popular in Scandinavia where trees and lakes make it
particularly challenging. We asked Haglöfs if using their kit
would improve our navigation - for some reason they just laughed at
us...
