The Compass Sport Cup is the British Clubs Orienteering Championships started by CompassSport Founder Ned Paul in 1982. Clubs are categorised into small (Trophy - 13 scorers - started in 1988) and large (Cup - 25 scorers) clubs. The Competition consists of an initial round in Spring and a Final round in the autumn. Prizes are provided for by CompassSport. The Competition is administrated by a volunteer co-ordinator on behalf of CompassSport and the Orienteering Clubs of the UK for which the competition was set up to serve.
