Stanford Paddlers Win 10 Medals at SA Championships

What a weekend for our Stanford paddlers!

A group of young athletes travelled all the way to Upington to compete in the SA Paddlesport Marathon Championships – and came back with 10 medals! What a team!

Here are their amazing results:

• Sakhe (U14): 2nd in K2, 3rd in K1 short course

• Yonwaba (U14): 3rd in K1 long course, 2nd in K2, 2nd in K2 short course

• Ripley (U14): 2nd in K2

• Emma (U18): 3rd in K1 long course, 1st in K2

• Khanyisa (U23): 1st in K2

• CJ (U23): 1st in K2

A massive well done to Emma Privett, who has been selected to represent South Africa in Hungary later this year!
