Race entry
Notices will be up in time for you to make your May regatta entries
before Easter and your September regatta entries before the school
summer holidays.
Please pay Sue Hawthorn by cheque made payable to Worcester Canoe Club.
Please do not give me cheques if I am wearing canoeing kit (wet or dry!)
Seniors – please note the introduction of 5k racing as follows:
K1 April
K2 May
K4 June
This year it is just 3 classes men, women and Canadian, however I hear
on the grapevine that these categroies will be split in due course if
there are sufficient entries – so get out there and race if you want
the classes to develop.
Also Masters will race in AGE GROUPS at the Nationals like the juniors
do – so come on you silver warriors work out your age groups!!!!
APRIL
REGATTA – 4/5 April 2009
National Watersport Centre, Nottingham
SIGN UP
DEADLINE IS 12th March 2009
Please
sign up
on the sheet in the club if you are planning to race at April Regatta.
Indicate
which races
you wish to be entered for by ticking the appropriate boxes.
Only
sign up
for those races you wish to do – once the entries have been made you
are
committed to paying for them even if you change your mind or are unable
to race
for whatever reason
Please note the order of racing, 500m
races are on Saturday and the 1000m (and presumably the 200m) are on
Sunday.
Because heats and finals
for each distance
are on the same day it is possible to enter just one distance and come
up for
one day instead of the whole weekend.
Fees are per race entered -
Senior: K1-£5.00, K2-£10.00 (£5.00 each),
K4-£20 (£5.00 each).
Junior: K1-£4.00, K2-£8.00 (£4.00 each),
K4-£16 (£4.00 each
Late entries attract a surcharge of £1 per
boat for K1 and K2 races
Lightning racing is charged at a fixed fee
of £10 per day
Don't forget that it is
your
responsibility to get your K1 and/or K2 up to Nottingham – if you need
more
boats than you have room for on your car then you will need to try to
find
someone with spare V's to help out. It is sometimes possible to reduce
the
number of boats by arranging to share, but this can only be assessed
very close
to the event once the timetable has been published
