Yep, I saw it. What club kit was that?
I think it was really good. Give the girl a sticker! She didn't fluff her lines she looked and sounded like she was enjoying herself. They showed her using EMIT, and they showed her running hard through long grass and over rough ground. An excellent advert for orienteering.

Twas Sarum club kit. I would name the kids involved but would that violate child protection rules nowadays?

No one has commented yet on the advice on the website to "take a whistle to blow in case you get lost"!

However, in general, it looks like a positive effort.
