Ed Ecclestone Award

Ed Ecclestone was the archetypal back stage supporter. For decades Ed could be fund supporting teams, races individuals, and the sport in its widest sense. Ed was a volunteer, who put in thousands of hours and thousands of pounds without being recognised or getting much publicity - that's why there are so few (if any) photos of him circulating.

In his memory we have a perpetual trophy awarded to an individual that has put in an exceptional amount of volunteer effort into the sport

We are now looking for nominations for this years' recipient. The winner will be selected by a panel of previous winners, from nominations received from you.

Please send your nominations to me by 30th October with a brief description of why they should receive the award. This can be, either by PM or by email (slalom.secretary@vol.britishcanoeing.org.uk) or in writing by post or by hand at the British Open.

Thanks

Colin Woodgate
