WWGC2022 will take place at Husbands Bosworth, from the 13th to the 27th of August.
The world’s top glider pilots will race their gliders over 14 intense competition days and thousands of kilometers in a bid to become World Champion. Pilots from 11 countries will be attending, including France, Germany, USA and Ukraine.
The BGA has fielded a team of 7 pilots in the 3 classes; Claudia Hill, Carol Marshall and Alison Mulder (Club Class). Sally Walker, Ayala Truelove and Fran Roberts in (Standard Class), and Jane Nash in 18m class.
Kelly Teagle is also the Reserve for the team.
The team have been running a Crowdfunding campaign to raise funds for the competition. If you’d like to help, please consider sponsoring the Team here.
Women Gliding and the Women’s Squad have also been instrumental in forming the Team, and inspiring more British women to fly cross-country and further their gliding aspirations!
