The NavShield is an overnight event where teams of emergency services personnel attempt to gain as many points as possible by finding their way, on foot only, through wilderness terrain to pre-marked checkpoints over an area from 80 to 100 square kilometres. The NavShield is an opportunity for the best rescue navigation teams in Australia to compete in unfamiliar terrain as a completely self-sufficient group.
Who can enter:
This event is open to rescue teams worldwide. Teams from around Australia include the Armed Services, Police, Rural Fire Services, State Emergency Services, Volunteer Rescue Association, Ambulance, Confederation of Bushwalking Clubs and Rogainers.
