He learned more and more about the sport and established contact with IOF Global Development member Jaroslav Kacmarcik. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Kacmarcik and Ms. Giulia Zenere, from Park World Tour (PWT) have then helped orienteering to grow in India. From a single club, The New Delhi Orienteering Club, that was started in New Delhi in June 2023, two more clubs have been established in India. Four orienteering events have been organised in India so far.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"704\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17-704x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51610\" style=\"width:314px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17-704x1024.jpg 704w, https:\/\/worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17-206x300.jpg 206w, https:\/\/worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17-768x1117.jpg 768w, https:\/\/worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17-1056x1536.jpg 1056w, https:\/\/worldorienteeringweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/17.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One reason why Gaurav Singh have preregistered\u00a0for the World Orienteering Week are that he wants the orienteering nations to know that India is ready and open for orienteering.
