On very short notice we have been made aware of an exciting opportunity to race Canoe Marathon at the World University Canoe games in Portugal on the 24^th August.

A team of up to 8 athletes will be selected to complete in the following classes: C1W 12km, C1M 16km, K1W 16km, K1M 20km.

BUCS manage the entries and have requested the athlete nominations be completed by 30^th March and delegates pay in full by the 12^th May. Due to this tight enforced deadline, the only assessment to make the athlete selections is this Saturday, 23^rd March, at the K1 / C1 Assessment in Norwich. We apologise for the short notice, however, this was unforeseen and the Selection Committee was keen to offer athletes the opportunity to represent at this event.

All athletes seeking selection must take note of the following:

• Read the full selection policy which outlines the eligibility criteria, event details and selection process: World University Canoe Marathon Policy
• Enter and complete at the K1 / C1 assessment on the 23^rd March. Entries can be found here: Norwich Assessment Entries
