Youth Round Up 2023

Posted on by

On the 16th September we celebrated the season for the Youth section. Congratulations to all those that received a trophy.

Message from Youth Manager Danny Marsh
“Well that’s another season done & dusted, well done to all our Youth members this year you’ve trained hard and deserve all your rewards.
With some very challenging conditions this year in competition & training you all stepped up and showed off your skills.
Early in the season we retained our Cornish Stillwater title followed by 7th at Nationals, the Cornish at Polzeath was tricky with very challenging conditions, but you raced well and came away 3rd overall.
Then is was time for the main event, Nationals at Branksome Chimes with some fantastic racing over the 2 days. For a small team you were all fantastic finishing 5th place overall.
So well done everyone, whether you were new to the club, racing for the 1st, making a final, scoring your 1st points for the team or gaining your 1st medal, every single one of you have done yourselves and the club proud.
As always thank you to the coaches, the cake bakers the competition helpers, all this is not possible without you!!”
