The story is mostly about the Junior team, and as such it's hard to tell that there were adult paddlers there as well.
But any news is good news. A quick quote:
"The Canadian anthem was cued on repeat in Berlin, as Team Canada sailed to vitory at the 7th annual International Dragon Boat Federation World Championships."
It's in print and I can't find an online copy, so if you want a souvenir go buy a Sun.
Nice article...juniors got connections or what ????Honestly,no mention of the Premier Women????
Was a parent a reporter?LOL

They've got their shit together, there are ways to pitch the media with a story.
O.P.
Great press

Bravo for the Juniors! Who cares if it didn't mention the other teams? It was coverage!
(Was there. Watching our kids come dancing into the closing party with their Junior Cup was one of the highlights of the week.)

A short article on the success of the Canadian women in Berlin is now posted on the website of the Canadian Association for the Advancement of Women in Sports ... http://www.caaws.ca/e/
Sure, it may not be the Toronto Sun, but it is nice to have some recognition for their accomplishments ...
