BOGOF for Div 2,3 & 4 - Enter Kayak & Canadian for 1 fee
I sympathise with "broke". My son is 13 and Div 1 in K1 and C1. There is no junior discount in div 1 so, as he still wants to do both and enjoys both equally at present, it costs me £45 for a double (with the £2 discount!)- a couple of them a month is "noticeable" with all other costs (petrol being the main one) It does seem excessive when you think that they are only on the water for a few minutes at each race. A more generous discount would be greatly appreciated, (though I am not fully aware of the fees clubs have to pay out, so possibly don't have the full picture). :O

Remembering that this rule change removes the £2 vdiscount, and only goes to div 2. So no discount in div 1 for anyone

As parents of a 12 year old son who is in both Div 2 K1 and C1 and desperately trying to decide which he wants to take forward in the future we are very disappointed in this result.
How are we to encourage young paddlers to come forward as future C1 paddlers???
We will no doubt try to keep affording to enter him in both events but it doesn't look as though young paddlers are being encouraged to try in both events.
What if he finds a C2 partner as well!!!

Not sure this is true. Certainly at recent events Ken C. has had C1 boats available for any padddlers. Plus if you ask most clubs that organise events they will lend a C1. Stafford and Stone lent a C2 to one of our kids in October. Poor excuse!Canadian PAddler wrote:RESULT:
