Hasler Trophy 2012 Update

Well done to all who went to Maidstone last weekend, it was great to see so many happy faces, good results as well.

This coming weekend 24th June is the Royal Marathon this is always a well attended event, and we can expect good to see a large number of competitors from Royal, Richmond and Elmbridge Canoe Clubs competing. The event is very well run, and refreshments are available before, during and after the race.

The river conditions at Royal can be a bit more demanding than the Wey so if you have any concerns please have a chat with your coach and maybe do K2 with a more experienced paddler.

Wey Kayak Club is currently leading the London and South East region with 36 points, but do under estimate the efforts that Royal, Richmond, and Elmbridge will make this weekend.

If you have not yet qualified for the Hasler final as an individual ie competed in 3 Hasler qualifying the following may help:-
1st July Wokingham
8th July Richmond
15th July Huntingdon, Ironbridge, and Bradford on Avon
19th August Tonbridge
25/26th August National Championships at Norwich
Please remember that if you want to race in the singles classes at the Hasler Final you need to have competed as a single in at least 3 Hasler qualifying races in year.

Happy paddling and look forward to seeing as many as possible Wey paddlers at Royal this weekend.
