It's the penultimate event in the Midlands Series this weekend - 6th October kindly hosted by Blithfield S.C. - NoR and SI's posted on the club website.

Always classed as a joint event between the Midland and Northern sailors. Who's going to rise to the challenge this year to represent their region.

Turnouts have been down for some of the opens this year, but with this event being nicely located for each region were hoping for a good turnout.

With the traveller series of five events, and the best three results to count, it's your opportunity to post a good result to take you into the final event of the series at the Winter Championship at Grafham Water S.C. at the end of October.
