Team GB's on-water events at London 2012

With the countdown rolling and the beginning in sight, the momentum for the 2012 Olympic Games is really starting to get going! Being held in London and across the UK from 27 July to 12 August 2012 and followed closely by the Paralympic Games from 29 August to 9 September 2012, you will find that the on-water events are quite spread out around the country.

With the Games taking place on home soil, there are hopes that Team GB will win plenty of medals and our hopes are especially high in the on-water events.
