Kiwi team another set back

Everyone send some support messages to the Kiwis paddlers. The team are doing an awesome job and have had good results last weekend - the only team competing without funding and coaching support.

Over the last couple of days

Mark has cracked his rib as a result of the Tacen drop and won't be racing this weekend. Thanks to the overseas teams who have helped with physio and sending him in the right direction for X-rays and emotional support. Mark will head home to NZL ASAP missing the China race and will try to maintain fitness and preparation in readiness for Brazil. All the best for a speedy recovery

Aaron after being unwell in Slovenia has also pulled out of competing in China and after the third world cup
will head back to NZL

Some team members have had stomach problems again- a throw back to the flooding and polluted water on the Prague course - stick to the bottled water and take lots of care everyone

Mike is going to se if he can race C1 as well this weekend.

Keep up the support messages for our seniors

  • Hope you are feeling better Mark and Aaron, a real disappointment
    but these things happen. Have safe
    trips home and we look forward to
    hearing from you all soon.
    To all the others - race well, good
    luck.
    Angela and Noel
