Andalucian water ski championship to be held in Cuevas del Almanzora

    During the first weekend of August Cuevas del Alamanzora will host the Andalucian water skiing championship. The championship will be held on the rowing canal built for the Mediterranean games in 2005. The competition itself will be held on the Saturday with the Thursday and Friday being dedicated to allowing any visitor who wants to try water skiing to do so free of charge.

    The cuevas councillor for sports, Paqui Rodriguez expressed her satisfaction that the rowing canal is being used for another important event as this has always been the policy of the ayuntamiento.

    In January this year there was an 'open doors' event which attracted more than seven hundred people and gave them the opportunity to take part in activities in the water and on land. There have also been regattas and there is a club which uses the canal for training at weekends.
