SUMMARY:Sat 7 Sep Youth Canoe Polo Competition - Barry Dock
DESCRIPTION:Let Steve know ASAP if you’re interested in this\, so we can either put in a Club Team or submit individual entries \nBridgend Canoe Club is hosting a Youth Canoe Polo Competition at Barry Dock on Saturday 7th September 2019. The competition will be open to any paddler who was age 17 or under on 1/1/2019 – depending on entries\, we will look at either running U16’s and U18’s categories\, or just U18s if that looks like it might be best. The focus will very much be on development and participation\, and most importantly\, having fun\, so is open to ALL abilities 🙂 \nWe would love to hear from any other youth paddlers who may want to compete\, as we will happily welcome (and encourage) individual paddlers (and we can then arrange people into teams)\, or whole teams (up to 8 per team). So feel free to pass this message on to anyone you know who may be interested 🙂 \nThe cost is £5 per person. Hopefully this will be a nice way to kick off youth polo for the coming season 🙂 \nPlease download an entry form (Word doc) and send the completed form to:\npr.bridgendcc@gmail.com \nWe aim to start around 10am and finish by 5pm\, but timings will depend on how many entries we get\, so we will finalise this nearer the time. \nWe will offer hot drinks\, cold drinks\, sandwiches\, cakes and a tuck shop. \nWe can provide equipment to those who need it. \nThe venue is Barry Community Water Activity Centre (BCWAC)\, Barry CF62 5AA.
