Performance Director John Anderson MBE comments -
“I am pleased to welcome Science on Sport on board as a Bronze level sponsor. Their value in kind support will help our top athletes in their continuing quest to win medals at major international competitions. GB Canoeing shares the same ‘leave no stone unturned’ philosophy and commitment to excellence as Science in Sport and we look forward to developing this relationship and sharing our future success with them.”
Bronze and Silver European Men’s Canoe Slalom C2 (canoe double) medallist, Tim Baillie comments -
"The SIS products are very useful in day to day training. Strawberry Rego is by far the best tasting recovery drink I have tried closely followed by the chocolate flavour. It is also easier to mix than other products I have tried. The Go bars are tasty and a very useful post or pre training snack. The Go and Smart 1 gels are very useful as a mid-session pick me up during long training sessions, they really help to maintain high quality right to the end."
