The British Open with Paddle UK promises to be an exciting event as the culmination of the British Slalom ranking season and a celebration of achievements across the Paris Olympic cycle. It is expected to be an exciting lineup, including Team GB athletes who’ve brought home medals from the Olympic, Senior, U23, and Junior competitions, as they prepare to battle it out for the top spot.
