Welcome to the Bray Lake Watersports Summer Series for 2023
Once again the Bray Lake Watersports summer racing returns and this year we are doing something different.
Paddle Parade
This year we are introducing the "Paddle Parade" category which is for those looking to take part for the first time and for a bit of fun - this is all about participation.
Two for One
Each event will see paddlers take part in TWO races (distance plus one other) and it will be the combined results of both of these that will give the overall results for the day. Medals will be awarded for the race divisions. If you complete three or more, your best three results will automatically be entered into the overall series standing for the race divisions.
For those in the Paddle Parade, we will be looking for those who have improved over the series.
Format
Each event will see paddlers take part in a distance race plus one other. This will be decided before each event and will be dependant on weather conditions.
- Distance - 6km for race divisions, 4km for Paddle Parade
- Technical - 2km for race divisions, 1km for Paddle Parade
- Sprints - 100m
