SKIING - DRY slope No. 1 seed Charlotte Davies proved over the last couple of months why she is the number one female skier in the UK.

DRY slope No. 1 seed Charlotte Davies proved over the last couple of months why she is the number one female skier in the UK. She has raced in a Celtic Cup series sponsored by Snowsport Wales, and has won six races, needing only to win five to be the overall winner.

Two races were held in Rossendale, Lancashire, two in Pontypool and the final two in Gloucester, winning medals, a superb glass trophy and prize money at the end of the series.

She now goes on to compete most weekends all through the summer at various levels of racing including National Championships at Scotland, Wales, England and finishing off in October with the Irish Championships.

Once the dry slope racing has finished she will be off onto the snow circuit in October where she is hoping for some good results which will enable her to be selected for the Great Britain ski team.

Charlotte is looking for sponsors to keep her dream alive to become a GB team member and to hopefully ski at the Olympics, anyone wishing to help she can be contacted on 07905 452057.
