Unofficial UK Slalom BBS

On behalf of the committee of Breadalbane CC SCIO . Breadalbane CC SCIO are delighted to have received this grant from SSE Griffin and Calliachar. We wish to clarify that the grant is to benefit the whole club and is not meant solely for our slalom contingent. It was not the committees' wish that th...

Having been the organiser for a prem/selection race for the last 3 years I have noticed a steady increase in the number of emails requesting confirmation of receipt of entry which is what led me to publish the list. Quite frankly there are many more important communications that need dealt with when...

The car parking for this years race was £5 per car for the entire weekend and included the additional facilities of the town hall. Officials who did not have associated paddlers with them were not charged. I think on balance, taking into account the facilities we provided and comparing it to what I ...

Firstly I'd like to thank all those who helped in any way make this weekends racing such a success. We hope you enjoyed the water level giving an exciting 2 days races! These events cannot be run smoothly without the cooperation, good nature and assistance of each and every one of you, which is just...

Hi, As some of you know the river rose rapidly on Saturday evening, this was due to a rapid thaw sending snowmelt cascading down the river network. Although it has been raining we haven't had enough to affect the river to that extent. The camera is fascinating to watch, but the information it gives ...

Yep, the river has gone into flood overnight. A combination of heavy rain and snow melt. This should go down to more reasonable level pretty quickly ...unless we get torrential rain all week...But paddlers should be prepared for a pretty high water level on race weekend. We can guarantee that it won...

Thanks Stephen, It is a wee bit more work, but better than a deluge of emails! I have been that anxious parent, especially after sending off a batch of cards early in the season and forgetting how far into the calendar I went. An online entry system would hopefully eradicate this problem as you'd ge...

LATE ENTRIES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST, PLEASE CHECK AND FOLLOW ANY INSTRUCTIONS. THANK YOU Hi Everyone, I am getting LOTS of emails regarding the receipt of entries. I'm sure you will understand that in organising a race of this magnitude, or indeed any race, there is a lot of emai...

Hi Folks, This event is not attracting many judges entries namely because the Div 1s are all doing selection and/or paddle ups. We have no choice but to ask each club who have paddlers racing to provide a minimum of 2 judges each (allowances will be made for small clubs). All late entries will be re...

The campsite is currently closed for winter maintainence and will reopen on the 28th March, too late for this race but perfect for the 1-2 in April.

Hi Everyone, Only 6 weeks until the first races of the season. The event info has been posted on the Canoe Slalom website. Paddlers are reminded to ensure they mark their entries clearly for selection (Scottish and/or Junior) and/or paddle up. No entry will be amended after the 28th Feb! Entries can...

Many thanks for a fantastic weekends racing! Great venue a perfectly organised event, you did yourselves proud with a start list of that magnitude look forward to future events at Tees Barrage. Thank you.

Reduced to £400. Boat in great condition, no repairs or damage. Usual cosmetic scratches only. Has been well looked after....even spent the winters in my hall!! Ideal boat for div 3-2. Saw my daughter well into Div 1. Located at Grandtully but we're attending lots of events and bring it down or arr...

In very good condition. Nose and tail recently reseamed. No repairs/damage. Carbon Kevlar construction. Small, will suit 50-60 kg. £500

We strongly advise paddlers to come prepared for paddling in very cold conditions. Pogies and thermals a must! The forecast is not looking like it will improve. Heavy rain is rumoured for Thursday, which might boost the river a wee bit, but turning to snow again on Friday. If you are judging please ...
