The British National Water Ski Championships
from Skew Bridge, Northamptonshire.
This year's British National Water Ski Championships were held last weekend on a stretch of water covering thirty-six acres near Rushden in Northamptonshire. The Skew Bridge Club, which was responsible for organising them, made several innovations which raised the standard of competition above the level of that in previous years. Friday and Saturday were used for qualifying heats and by Sunday the field was reduced to eighteen competitors in the men's events and six in the women's. The traditional events-Slalom, Figures, and Jumping-were included in the programme, and it soon became clear that Britain has now moved into world class in water skiing.
The first four teams from the Tokyo Olympics-Germany, Italy, France, and Great Britain-are joined by Ireland, Spain, Australia, and Holland in the greatest-ever entry for the world's premier International Horse Show.
