And that's a wrap on the ICF 2022 Junior U23 World Championships in Ivrea, Italy.  A team of 20 athletes representing across kayak, canoe and extreme disciplines and for many, it was their Junior/U23 Worlds debut.

After 2020's event was cancelled and no team sent in 2021 it was good to have a good sized team of athletes that had made selection criteria to compete in 2022.
