Competition:
Over the past 20 years Wellingborough Masters have competed at County, District, National, European and World Championship levels - they’ve even been ’called to the colours’ to represent the Club at C-grade galas!

Guernsey Masters – March
Midland District Masters, Leamington Spa – April
Barnet Copthall Masters – September
Staffordshire Open Masters - September
Berks & South Bucks Open Masters, Maidenhead – October.

Some hardy souls have even tried their hand at open water competitions !

Come on in, the water’s fine!
