Super weather again for the Cheshunt Regatta at Herts Young Mariners Base. Stortford were one of seven clubs taking part, and the nine BSCC paddlers brought the total entries to 43 at this event. Catherine, Libby, Noah and Connor also had a go at K4 racing. Nine Stortford paddlers enjoyed some glorious sunshine at the Leaside Regatta. The medals were based on the results of the mornings sprinting over 500m and 200m. Lexi, James D and Jamie G also took part in the 3 km fun race after lunch. Well done to Libby and Kayleigh for completing their first competition.

Chelmsford's regatta was the final event of the 2017 Summer Series, so the day ended with the award of the medals for performance across the season. As there were only three regattas this year, it was the two best results for each paddler which were used to calculate the overall positions.

Together with a good turnout from the home team, there were a total of 59 competitors. The 500m K1 heats were followed by the 200m heats. During the lunch break, crews were formed for K2 races, which took place over 500m and 2000m.
