Burloak boasts top junior paddler in Canada A junior Oakville canoer is serv ing notice that he's ready to follow in some pretty big footsteps -- or should we say. some pretty big wakes -- at the Burloak Canoe Club. Over the May 24/25 weekend in Montreal at the Senior National Team Trials. Jamie Andison. a 17-year Oakville Trafalgar High School student, was the only junior paddler to make the B Final in both the 500 metres and l(XX) metres C-l event. At the conclusion of the two-day event. Andison was ranked the top jun ior canoer in Canada, earning him a coveted place on the Canadian junior European tour team. Andison will be training and com peting in Poznan, Poland and Bochum. Germany this month. Upon return. Andison will compete at a second set of trials to be held in Dartmouth. Nova Scotia at the end of July. Successful results will earn him a place on the Canadian Junior World Team that will compete at Junior Worlds in Komatsu, Japan in late August. Andison is following in a long line of canoers at the club that includes two Oakville natives, Larry Cain ('84 Olympic gold and silver medalist) and Gavin Maxwell ('96 Olympian), and Burlington resident Mark Oldershaw (double gold, 2(H) I junior world cham pion). The Burloak Canoe Club, o f course, also has a fine tradition in the other paddling spon. kay ak, where Oakville's Adam vanKoeverden has has cemented himself as the club's marquee athlete. The former Loyola grad, now a McMaster University student, contin ued his dominance in men's kayak in Canada by winning both the 500 metre and l(XX) metre races at the trials. This, after a stunning result in the World Cup opener in Belgium last month where he finished second in the 1.(XX) metre event. After a month of training in Norway. vanKoeverden will continue training and competing in Poland and Germany in June. He will also be competing in Dartmouth in July with hopes to once again represent Canada on the Senior World Team.

Another Adam from Burloak. Adam Oldershaw. also found success over the weekend. With strong performances in the K1 I(XX) and 500m races. Oldershaw secured a spot on the 2003 Pan American Games Team.
