NO 10@10 Sunday 27th May 2012

To all our regular 10@10 paddlers, there is no race this Sunday due to a rowing regatta. The building & the car park is being used for this event which will mean the club house & river will be out of bounds.

 

Thank you.

On the 18th May Harry Archer travelled to the Gent regatta in Belgium to compete as part of the BCU development  team, of 45 paddlers, representing and paddling in their own club colours.
This competition was open to all Girls/Boys A and B paddlers and, apart from a nominal contribution made by the paddler, was fully funded by the BCU.
Harry made 7th in the final of the Junior mens K1 1000m having won his heat and coming 2nd in the semi final. He also competed in the K2 at 1000m and 200m with Nick Romain of Richmond canoe club.
This regatta gives paddlers a good first international experience and a great weekend was had by all. 45 paddlers attended this event from all over the UK.
This weekend Rebi and Marton Simon, Katherine Trotter and Amy Ward have all been selected, from Elmbridge canoe club, to compete as part of the British team in Piestany. Good luck to them.

Hastings 1066 Hasler

Results Hasting 1066

The club fielded a team of 16 paddlers for this event: someone in every division except Div.6. Other clubs from our region taking part were Royal, Wey, Maidstone, Tonbridge and Hastings.

 

Philip won Div.1/2 (combined)  Glenn 4th  Richard 5th

Kayne came second in Div 3,

Ross won Div 4  (Paul 3rd, Tim.B 5th)

Luke was 4th in  Div 5 ,

 

Becky Solway was 4th in Div 7 and won the prize for highest placed junior lady. Excellent performances also from Jenny and Rebecca W. Both suffered mishaps but didn’t give up!

 

Steve and Ben worked together to take 1st & 2nd in Div 8 (ie Ben sat on Steves wash all the way round then beat him at the end) .. both were promoted !

 

Our new racers in Div 9 ( Georgia, Georgina and Archie) all finished without mishap after a chaotic start. Four miles is still a long way for them, but they all finished and scored points for the club.

 

The final reckoning on the points brought Tonbridge out on top, which was no surprise as they really were out in force) Wey second and Elmbridge 3rd (only one point behind Wey).

 

We scored well on our singles, but had no doubles: Wey scored heavily with their K2s perhaps not as well as us on their K1s. We need a good representation of both K1 and K2 at our next regional race, Maidstone on June 17th.
