Worcester Race Results
Wednesday, 05 August 2009

The detailed race results are available at the link below. Fun and games on the start line at times with cruisers bowling down the river out of control when faced with 3 dragon boats lining up but all the races were completed with minimal drama. The minor final of the cup was a clear win for Worcester but a split of just a tenth of second favoured Typhoon Tigers in their battle for top honours in east London.

Preston Race Results
Wednesday, 29 July 2009

Preston was a little reminiscent of Bristol 2007 for round 6 of the National League. Nevertheless Amathus were quite at home and continued their victorious march through the season with top place in both classes. Both BA and a resurgent Raging Dragons pushed them close but no cigar! Only 13 crews contended on the day with late drop outs by Prescotts Pirates and Pool of Life. The points have been added to the league tables.

Way to Go
Thursday, 11 June 2009

Melanie and Jonathan Still, crew managers for PowerHouse, have the following advice for those attending the Teesside event on Sunday:

River Tees Watersports Centre
The Slipway
Dugdale Street
Stockton on Tees
TS18 2NL
The best approach is to follow signs for Stockton from the A19. Pass ASDA and cross next set of traffic lights. At next roundabout look for disused car dealership (on the right) and take the first exit, there is a small sign on the right. Continue to the end and turn right. The Centre is first on the left. There is limited parking at the Centre itself. All trailers must park in the designated area, take care when passing through the gate as long trailers tend to ground.
