Calendar of Key Events 2009-10
You are assumed to be available for all of these dates unless you notify DC in writing at least one month prior to the event. (For National events considerably more notice is required). Otherwise you are liable for entry payments.
No-one will race in all events. We have selected a range of events to match the range of aspirations of our athletes. As a guide, we have put each event in to a category. Regional events are open to all and most will race at these events. National events require a high level of training and preparation. Only those crews/athletes doing this will be entered. Age is not the primary issue, effort and performance is!
