Cindy proudly competed in the WSA World Championship held in Oberwiesanthal, Germany in the 4 dog sprint class. She completed the 3 days (9.5km per day) in 31st position, a mere 5 minutes in total behind the leader. World class competition and an experience of a lifetime. Thanks going to Christoph Diel and Angelika Merkle for the use of 4 of their amazing dogs.  Information on the event can be found at the following website: http://www.schlittenhundeweltmeisterschaft.de/

The IFSS World Championships

The IFSS World Championships was held in Quebec, Canada from the 16-25th January 2009. What an honour to compete in this world class event with some of the best sprint mushers from around the world including entrants from Jamaica, France, Norway, Sweden and Argentina. A total of 16 different countries and 400 competitors. A HUGE thank you going to Serge Pomerleau from Quebec for the opportunity to use his top class dogs bred by world renowned musher Terry Streeper. Thank you to all that supported and assisted me during this event and helped me to succeed. I also had the honour of meeting some sledding greats such as Harris Dunlap who I have only ever read about.

The final results from the 6 dog sprint class saw a finish in 20th position from a field of 33 entrants. A further 33 entrants in the 4 dog sprint class and a fantastic overall 16th position had me jumping for joy. This was better than I could ever have hoped for, unsurpassed by any other South African musher for an international event. (Photos to follow.)

Team Wolvereen wins the SAFSS Championships in the Open 6 Dog team class. Finishing  time of 21min 25sec. Not only was our team the fastest purebred team but the fastest team of the day!
Congratulations also going to Tracy Bagg and Theo for winning the 2-Dog Scooter class overall, winning with purebreeds, Wolvereen Nvrending Story and Wolvereen Professor X. Well done guys!

World Sleddog Championships

Jessica and Ola of Vintervittra Siberians were kind enough to loan me dogs from their excellent kennel to take part. I proudly and successfully completed the event in 32nd position. Huge thank you to Royal Canin for their support, all the officials and assistants and my family and friends for their support. This was a dream come true!
