The Korea Sports Promotion Agency announced that the "2026 Gwangmyeong Speedome Indian Orientation National Competition" will be held at Gwangmyeong Speedome on April 25.

Orienting is a sport that uses maps and compasses to find and move to a set point, and it is an event derived from soldiers' training in Dokdo law.

Participants must find multiple points (control points) in order within a limited time, and physical strength, spatial perception ability, and judgment are required.

The competition is hosted and organized by the Korea Orienting Federation and sponsored by the Seoul Olympic Memorial National Sports Promotion Foundation and the Gwangmyeong Youth Foundation.

In particular, this competition is an "Indoor Orienteering" event and will be held using the indoor space of Gwangmyeong Speedy Dome. Orienting, which takes place indoors, is a unique sport that requires quick judgment and space understanding without being affected by the weather, and interest among sports lovers and family-level participants has recently increased.

The game is divided into individual and team events. Individual competitions can be selected according to the level of participants such as beginner, intermediate, and upper level, and group competitions can be participated in a family of two or more people including at least one elementary school child.

"The Indian Orienting Competition at Gwangmyeong Speedom is a unique sports event that citizens can enjoy safely indoors," said an official from the Gyeongnyeonjeong who spoke to this newspaper by phone.
