Entry to the World Cup competitions in Europe, 2008, needs to be via the National Federation. Unfortunately, if there are too many people who enter (due to time constraints on the competition there is a total limit of 250 paddlers per event) there will be a restriction of 15 people per country, though we are hoping that all GB paddlers who want to enter will be able to enter. We would like to make it clear that the UK Freestyle committee believes the World Cup should be an open event and not a team event (like the World/European Championships), we will therefore not be selecting paddlers on paddling performance to represent Great Britain, and there will not be any support in terms of funding or team managers for British paddlers. (Please see ‘how to enter’ below)

There are 3 events for the World Cup: Prague 15 -17 August (cost TBA), Augsburg 22-24 August (Cost: 50 E, includes camping), Thun 28-31 August (Cost: 40E)

All information can be found on : http://www.kayaksession.com/WC2008.php I have no further info than this.

How to enter:

UK Freestyle will be taking entries via email on a first-come, first-served basis.
Entry will open on Monday 23rd June 2008, 9.00am we will not accept any entries before this time or date, we will not accept any entries after Sunday 29th June, as we have to collate the information and give numbers of entrants to the officials on the 1st July 2008.

Please email your name, category and which event(s) you would like to enter, (you do not have to enter all 3) - to flea at fionajarvie dot co dot uk (put the appropriate symbols in!)

Please send one email per entrant per category - (e.g if you would like to enter both C1 and K1 I will need one email with your details for C1, and one email for your details for K1).

Entries will be on a strict first-come, first-served basis when each event has 15 names on it further names will be entered onto a reserve list.

Squirt Boaters

Squirt boating is not included in the limited number, but you will still need to register via UK Freestyle Committee, so can you also email your entry to the above address from Monday 23rd June, 9.00am.

Thanks,

Flea.
