Re: Paddler Retention

I also wonder if it the way we behave towards younger paddlers plays a part in retention. Many juniors have made comments about how they are spoken to by adults when they are off the water and they don't want to be around people like that.

Washburn - A59 road closure

See you there!

Re: Simplifying Vets

I'll be surprised if a Vet who currently ranks as a 2/3 takes up the option to race at a Prem or Div 1 event more than once or twice in a year, so I just don't think this is an issue. If it is, the same would apply with a one-division C2. I agree with Nick - I don't think this is an issue. P/1 even...

Official practice runs

Should Div 1-4 racers be given an official practice run?

There was a discussion at training recently and the rule book makes me think so, but would be interested in the general opinion.
