Slalom Calendar 2012
Division 4
MAR
- APR - MAY - JUN -
JUL - AUG - SEP -
OCT - NOV
How hard will the course be?
Organisers try to use sites and set the gates at
a level of difficulty to suit paddlers in the Division that's racing.
When the event is multi-divisional you can
expect the course to be set for the higher division racing, so Div 3 paddlers
can expect to find a 2/3 tough going, Div 2 paddlers should find 1/2 races
difficult, and so on. You may prefer to pick races that are for just your own
division, or yours and one down, to start with - but if you like bigger water
and enjoy a challenge, go for harder ones!
|
|
Entry Cards |
|
Only the Blue Cards with a signature box on are acceptable. The brown
cards and other types should not be used.
You can get entry cards from:
Mrs S Paterson, 14 Clay St, Wymeswold,
Loughborough LE12 6TY. Send her an envelope, 11 x 22 cms,
stamped and addressed to yourself.
|
|
Postcodes and Satnav
|
|
Because a lot of people use satnav to find unfamiliar places, we
include postcodes with the slalom
details. Bits of river don't really have postcodes: we show the one for the nearest address we can trace. Using these
should get you somewhere near the site but you might find yourself
½ km away, and even on the wrong side of
the river.
