International results

NKC Members have enjoyed considerable success in international competitions over the past few weeks. Go to the club website for links to each of them. 6 club members have competed & one been involved in coaching. http://uk.geocities.com/nottinghamkayakclub/recent/page2.html

The most outstanding is of course Tim Babants becoming European Champion in Mens K1 500 metres. He added this to the Silver medal he had already won in the 1000 metres. Lucy Wainwright paddling with Abby Coulson also managed 8th in their final

The club website also has links to the Junior World Wild Water Racing Championships where Michael Sims managed an 11th & 14th place. By far the most entertaining link is to the report from this trip where the exploits of Michael & Agent Orange in the colonies can be enjoyed. http://www.wildwater.org.uk/events/racereports/juniorworlds2007.htm

There are also links to the the World Cups Marathon in Denmark, where Hayleigh Mason, Vicky Surrage & Harriett Farish also turned in good results. Lastly there are links to the international races in Spain, where Hayleigh Mason has again been racing this weekend. It helps to be able to read Spanish & the website changes every time you look at it, but if you poke around a bit, you can find the results downloadable as pdf files.
