How do I register an overseas paddler?
If my club has overseas paddlers who are members of their own national body, but not British Canoeing, can they be registered under my club?
If your foreign paddlers want to race under your club then they have to be British Canoeing members. If these paddlers' stay is relatively temporary then as visitors they can race under their Bulgarian National Federation club colours but we will need proof of their current membership and written permission from their home National Federation to compete in the UK. If they race under their home club colours then we'd use the Non-UK club short code for them in the programme.
After I register a new paddler, why isn't an Ability Class or Age Class shown against their record?
The following information is required to calculate Ability Classes and Age Classes
Ability Classes
- Gender
- Kayak | Canoe | Kayak and Canoe
- Relevant 500m time(s)
Age Classes
- Gender
- Date of birth
- Kayak | Canoe | Kayak and Canoe
Age Classes are calculated based on a Paddler's racing age. This is their age on the 1st of January for the given year.
Ability Classes and Age Classes are calculated automatically when a new paddler record is set up. Ability Classes are validated and confirmed by the person responsible for Paddler Registration. As soon as these have been validated, the paddler will appear on the Entries screen for any Competitions accepting entries.
