- Competitors in Boatercross should be competent level 3 kayakers( or higher ) and have a solid roll.

- Once again this year folks, the prize giving and after race banter will be taking place in the Ross Inn. As this is a pub, those underage will not be able to join the festivites. When the day is done, just make your way to Rossbeigh and join in the fun.
Dave, Annie is right. You can enter both but will have to pay for both!
