Last weekend at Waters Edge a selected group of children from Colombo completed their Junior Propstar Training Course under the guidance of the Lanka Powerboat Association (LPA) trainers.
The children worked extremely hard to attain their Junior Propstar Competition Certificate. The program included classroom work, children’s presentations, race practice and on water tuition.
The two-day event concluded with the children competing against each other in the first ever Junior Propstar Race and thrilling time trial.
