British Junior Gliding Team Poland - 2024

Help the British Junior Gliding Team to Victory in Poland!

The junior team will be taking part in the 13th FAI Junior World Gliding Championships 2024 from Ostrów, Poland. This prestigious event will bring together the best under-26 glider pilots from around the globe, vying for the title of world champion.

Our talented team members for this competition are George White and George Downing in Club Class. Oliver Ramsay and Henry Inigo-Jones will represent the team in the Standard Class. These young pilots are eager to compete on the international stage, flying against the fastest junior pilots while making the UK gliding community proud.

While the team is grateful for the support received from the British Gliding Association and other sponsors, we are launching a crowdfunding campaign to ensure our pilots have the necessary resources for training, travel, and competition expenses. Your contribution will be crucial to their success.

£20 - Cover camping expenses for a day

£500 - Cover a return ferry ticket to Europe with a trailer
