The Canoe England Slalom Committee is made up of the officers

And the England Regional Reps who were last year as follows:-

North East Region – Wendy Morris
North West Region – Mike Patrick (Mike Roberts has now taken over)
South East Region – Peter Bedingfield
South West Region – Ian Robson
West Midlands Region – Dave Royle
Yorkshire and Humberside Region – Esther Mathews

In general terms, the Committee is responsible for providing

A Team to compete at the Pan Celtic Races
Organisation of the English Pan Celtic Slalom
Support for unfunded athletes either at senior selection or GB teams
Development of Slalom in England

Of particular note is the last of these actions. Regional Reps have been encouraged to provide Regional training days and support and this has met with varying levels of success. A number of clubs have applied for support with small capital projects.

Please speak to Regional Rep (if you have one) and encourage them to participate in the Committee. The Regional Rep is the link from you or your club to the Canoe England Slalom Committee. If you do not have a regional representative then it’s time to start looking for one.
