The deadline for submitting motions for this years ACM is Thursday 30th October. Motions need to be submitted in writing to the BCU Slalom Secretary (details in the yearbook) and must be signed by two individual BCU members who are members of and represent a voting club, i.e. two separate clubs who...

It doesn't make sense to keep the ladies in with the men. That just complicates matters and makes life even harder for the slalom organiser. They can race at the same time but the points calculation should be totally independent of each other. The next most obvious suggestion to make is that the la...

The boat is cut for a 50-77kg paddler, the colour of the boat is yellow and it is in good condition. I would like £300 ono for the boat.

Is there any slal...

Details are now available about the planned upgrade to the Tees Whitewater Course, following the public consultation and exhibition held on 13 June 2008.

From your original post in the Events section I had assumed that CANI had secured enough investment in Paddling Beyond 2012 to fund both the coaches and an initial supply of appropriately sized boats to get the successful applicants started in Canoe Slalom. I can't see how taking old 4m castoffs is...
