She will also take part in the K2 Junior Women event with Isabella Parish, (INCC Yarra Paddlers) starting at 4:50pm AEST on Friday. This would be an extra good time to watch because Réka Abraham (INCC Yarra Paddlers)will also be out on the water, racing in the C1 Open Women event starting at 4:55pm – you can cheer everyone on at once!
We also have lots of other Aussies racing, with paddlers in most of the Junior and Open events and many of the Masters, so it’s worth tuning in whenever you get the chance.
Definitely don’t miss the Open Women’s K2 event on Sunday. Bec Mann (Mercantile and Goldfields) and Hannah Scott (Mercantile) are looking to improve on their phenomenal effort last year when they placed 6th. They have been training hard over in Denmark so we can’t wait to see what they can achieve this year!
