BARSC Team event

Today (28.9.14) saw 12 Telford skiers taking part in the BARSC team event at Manchester Chill Factore.  It was great to see more experienced racers supporting those who are relatively new to ski racing.  The atmosphere was brilliant with all juniors helping each other with free skiing, course inspection and general confidence building.  Today's race was a pro-slalom event which was a first for most of our juniors.  This was a double gated course (similar to the courses which we have now started doing after timings on a Wednesday) with a jump half way down.  With parents on the edge of their seats, all of our skiers delivered excellent, confident and solid runs in the morning, to obtain their individual fastest time for team seeding.  The team events produced some brilliant runs from all our juniors, but more importantly, all skiers (and parents) had loads of fun with lots of smiles from all.  Thank you to skiers for your fantastic team spirit: parents for organising travel arrangements and supporting our athletes and to all volunteers who made this event such a success.  Telford skiers were:  Christian Stevenson, Harriet Blythe, Grace Williams, Will Evans, Tom Harper, Chrissie Blythe, Issy Drummond, Ellie Jackson, Charley Fellows, Elle Drummond, Matt Williams, Andrew Webb.  Helen
