Hi, Just want to know if you need to be a member of a club or if there is a required standard or grade needed to enter the decent.

Regards Declan

Rule 7 states:

All entrants must be currently registered as members of the Irish Canoe Union or currently registered members of a recognised National Canoeing Federation. Proof of membership of a National Federation will be require when collecting a Race Bib.

You can find the rules on this page: http://www.liffeydescent.com/langua...Rules.aspx

What is date of 2011 race. We, a couple of Canadians, are coming over and have to schedule the race around a bike trip to Denmark
Gordon
Also we would like to find a canoe to rent or borrow for race day

The date for 2011 is September 11^th.

I suggest you contact the office of the Irish Canoe Union canoe rental/hire. They may be able to assist. You can find their contact details at http://canoe.ie/Information/Aboutth...fault.aspx

I thought next year's Liffey Descent was on the 10th of September,,,,the 11th is a Sunday, but I could be wrong.

Oops!

I would like to compete with my 12 year old son in two-person sit-on type craft. Would we be excluded either because of his age or because of the type of craft?
