Euromeeting 2023: Team announcement and how you can get involved

26 September 2023

We are delighted to announce the team representing Great Britain at the Euromeeting 2023.

Euromeeting is a warm-up event for WOC 2024, with maps and courses from the WOC 2024 team. It is expected that many international teams will be taking part, so this is a good chance for the GBR team to develop experience in high-quality sprint races highly relevant to WOC 2024.
