"And the national vets champion listed - from the vets championship, run on championship ie. P/1 water." So ruling out any entries from Div 2,3 and lower ranked Div 1s. Yes they (we) will never win but if you run it on P/1 water it will just be the top 10 or 15 vets racing. Consider those in the lo...

It sure will be great to camp on site but just to be totally clear it is NOT available this year and Yorkshire Water rules prohibit it except for limited camping for the organisers who clearly need to be on site for security and access reasons. There are lots of improvements going to be happening t...

I can only echo comments regarding the camping. I've stayed there the last few years as its the only one close by but have resorted to driving to the event as I found the experience at Pearl's less pleasant each time I visited. I also found that having to vacate the site early meant I may as well d...

Thanks for the positive comments. Glad you enjoyed it.

Just a quick note to point out this was a joint venture between Lower Wharfe CC & Kingston KC.

The bank transfer relates to how you load money into your account. Once money is loaded you then 'send' it to the organisers email address where it will appear on their account (and they would get an email as well). It would therefore be relatively simple to tie up the payments. In addition any onl...

Saturdays course was probably the best I have paddled on Cardington, it flowed and there was plenty of space (and water) to do the up gates. I was hoping Sundays course would be similar with just a few changes. I have to agree the course design on Sunday was most odd which resulted in my official p...

Just got back from the chezch republic Euopean Seniors Slalom Comp. Have to say it was great fun and made better by free beer for competitors (and possibly judges)! Thursday we had the water to ourselves for a coupe of hours for training on their course. Friday we competed in Giant Slalom. This was...

upload is free by bank transfer, maestro or cheque. There is a charge to upload from credit cards of 1.9%. Not sure about debit cards but i would think same as maestro. Still bank transfer is free so should not be an issue.

Just had a quick look and moneybookers.com would appear to be an option. Very low fees for the sender of the payment and a small one off fee when drawing the money down £1.50 (after the event has finished). From what I can see this would mean it would ony cost the club a handling fee of £1.50 per e...

Hi, As per previous threads I'd suggest email is not the best medium, as posts here say not all the details are captured, its then easy to lose details and entries are not acknowledged and may never have been received for various reasons. What we need to do in my humble opinion (without getting stu...
