European Championships in Auronzo ends with 500 and 200 meters finals 1.7.2018

After four days of exciting competition the 2018 ECA Junior and U23 Canoe Sprint European Championships in Auronzo di Cadore, Italy, came to an end with final races in the 500 and 200 meters distances. We’ve seen exciting races and familiar faces on the podium, but also tough conditions in the afternoon part of the programme with strong wind and waves that caused trouble for the athletes.


It was a day to remember for Belarus. This country celebrated seven gold and three silver medals. It was Ina Sauchuk who was the fastest both in junior K1W 200 and 500 metres finals, Nadzeya Makarchanka and Volha Klimava won in women’s U23 C2 500 meters final, Klimava was later also European Champion in women’s U23 C1 200 meters event. Men’s junior K4 crew celebrated European title at 500 meters distance, Vladislav Lukashuk and Aliaksei Matusevich were the best in U23 C2 500 meters final and Aliaksandra Kalaur and Anastasiya Zhuk closed the successful day with gold medal in women’s C2 junior 200 meters final.
 
 
Poland finished the day with a total of four gold medals that were won by women’s U23 K4 500 metres crew, Justyna Iskrzicka and Paulina Paszek in women’s U23 K2 500 meters event, Bartosz Grabowski in men’s K1 junior 200 metres final and Sylwia Szczerbinska – Dorota Borowska in women’s U23 C2 200 meters event.
 
 
Ukraine too won four gold medals today.

Rasmus Knudsen from Denmark added gold medal from the junior K1 500 metres race to his yesterday’s 1000 metres title. Denmark celebrated two more European titles thanks to Pernille Knudsen in women’s U23 500 meters event and Katrine Jensen – Sara Milthers who were the fastest in women’s junior K2 500 meters event.
 
 
Lucia Valova brought much joy to Slovak fans winning the title in junior women’s C1 500 meters event and silver medal in the 200 meters event. Slovak U23 K4 crew – Balaž, Zalka, Frana, Linka – won another gold medal for this country.
 
 
Andrea di Liberto won gold medal for Italy in men’s K1 U23 200 meters final and his teammate Carlo Tacchini won silver in 200 metres C1M U23 final. It was Vadim Korobov from Lithuania who became champion in this canoe event.
 
 
Biljana Relić from Serbia is the new K1W U23 200 meters event European Champion, Anastasiia Vazhinskaia from Russia was the fastest in women’s C1 junior 200 metres final, Laura Ruiz and Flore Caupain from France were the best in women’s junior C2 500 metres final, and women’s Czech K4 crew celebrated a title in junior 500 meters event.
 
 
Athletes from Great Britain, Hungary, Romania, Belgium, Georgia, Modlova, Germany and Latvia were also among the medallists today.
 
 
Next year the ECA Junior and U23 Canoe Sprint European Championships will be held in Czech Republic, on the venue that hosted the 2017 Senior Canoe Sprint and Paracanoe World Championships in Račice.
