World Bogsnorkelling Championships Sports


Fancy a day on the Bog Great competition and some fantastic costume . For all ages


The challenge is to complete two lengths of the Bog trench in the fastest time .
This may sound at first as ridiculous but it is a tough event and there will be some serious competitors out to be crowned World Champions .
At present the World Record is held by Kirsty Johnson in a time of 1 min 22.56 secs .(2014)
Categories Male , Female , Juniors (under 17yrs) , over 50s and International
All entrants will receive a medal.
Considering that no recognised swimming armstroke is permitted then that is an amazing time .
There are food and drink stalls plus live music .
Fancy dress is welcomed and there are trophies for that category.
In the main bog the minimum age is 14 yrs but there is an adjoining bog for ages over 8 yrs.
