Wild Water Racing on the Soar

Just two paddlers this time out, which is a shame as the River was at a very good level for racing, but the time of year does make things difficult, hopefully we will have a few more on January 20th.

Neal Underwood came 19th in the Men’s K1 and second V60, his time was 15:34.27, earning him 1,696 points, which means he finishes the season as runner up in the National Veterans over 60 rankings.

Ivijah Campbell-Bryan was 27th overall and 1st Under 12, Well done Ivijah.

The Barrow-on-Soar race is an ideal introductory race, it is 3k and suitable for people new to the sport. For more information or to start having fun River Racing, call Neal on 07951 770241 or email: canoeing@thesharks.org.uk. Come and join us on Saturday January 20th.

Once again, a big thank you to Soar Valley Canoe Club for hosting the events.
