Thanks CP, your help is much appreciated I have put together a proposal and emailed it over to Ken. I sent you a message, but think that I need to have a club to second the motion. Would any club like to second it? For clarity, I agree entirely with CP that the pool should be suitable for a decent ...

Yo! Just a quick one! There have been loads of people asking over the last week or so about how likely the race at the weekend is going to be cancelled due to lack of water. The simple answer is no chance. The Tees has loads in at the moment and Abbey Rapids can be raced at even really low levels. ...

I agree with Ken's method, the earlier entries come in the easier it is to administer an event, so last come, first to judge seems fair to me... If people don't turn up, disqualify them. It is fair, it's not as if it comes as a surprise as everyone knows the concequences... I don't think that half ...

A bit of a plug on behalf of WYCC. If you were planning on having a weekend's racing at Bala, but don't know what to do with yourself, get yourself up to West Tanfield near Ripon. It's an absolutely mint div 3/4 event with a hog roast on Saturday night! Why waste a weekend, when there's mint little...

Quick reminder! I'll be at HPP this weekend and accepting entries. Any received after the weekend will be subject to late entry fee. The team event will be a fairly relaxed affair and we'll be taking entries on the day (although we've got 3 in already, each with a brilliant name!) With regard to B&...

We do however have plenty of space left for competitors, so get your entries in! If any of the d...

The rule does not state that the mid season promotees can get demoted. The rule states two situations: 1 if you get promoted mid season 2 if you get reinstated after 31 July. In either of these situations you have protection from demotion as "short season" applies. The thinking being that if you wa...

I heard that today too! Ah well, it's staying at Abbey now. It'll be nice to have a prem on a different bit of river for a change, but it'd have been much easier if it could have been at the barrage (for me mainly!) But yeah, thanks for the entries to date, they are proper flooding in and the start...

Right on to tomorrow! the river level has dropped sufficiently and the 2/3 will run as a double. there will be space for a limited number of late entries...

Yeah just go straight there. We're planning on having a leaisurly start at about 11am. Don't worry if you're a bit late, I think it'll be a bit of an informal affair!

Hope to see you there.
