Lively Liverpool
Saturday, 12 May 2012

Tradition was definitely broken at the second National League event in Liverpool. A demanding start to the day with the 500m racing, chaotic and damp turns in the paired buoy racing and carnage on the second turn of the 2K figure of eight finale. Overall though a positive outcome for the crews that accepted the challenge and supported the new format.

The results will be published and the league tables posted as soon as they are available. 
 
National League Event 3 Closing Date
Wednesday, 02 May 2012
National League event two may be looming but Sunday 6th May is also the closing date for National League event three entries. Don't risk higher entry fees by missing the deadline. Bristol is a new venue but we will be back to the traditional format of 200m and 500m racing. Round up the troops and commit now!
