Team15 Champions Cup - Axbridge Animals claim second place
|
The Team15 Championship Cup national final, which involved more than ninety competitors, took place over the 13th-14th October at Pitsford Water in Northampton. The Axbridge Animals, the Team15 windsurfers of Bristol Corinthian Yacht Club, were narrowly beaten into second.
The Animals, who, despite their South West home compete in the Team 15 South zone, qualified for the final for the first time this year, and lost to the Hythe Hotshots from the South East.
However, their performance was outstanding, according to competition organiser for the South Zone, Chris Lewis: 'To finish runners-up at the Champions Cup is a great achievement and one that reflects the huge efforts made by the Animals in this Olympic year. I am thrilled for the team and cannot express my gratitude enough for all the teams and sailors that gave us a season to remember.'
The Roseland Wave Riders, who represented the South West Zone in the final, came a creditable fifth, with Lowenna Penny receiving a Merit Award for her team spirit after she helped out her younger team mates who were struggling a little during the races.
