WESTERN MORNING NEWS COVERAGE
The Western Morning News is planning to dramatically increase its coverage of Pilot Gig Racing this year. As usual we will be at the World Pilot Gig Championships on the Isles of Scilly but we are also aiming to cover all of the CPGA's fixtures this year as well. Once the racing season is underway we hope to provide at least one dedicated page a week to the racing with photos, news and results. We plan to back up these pages with in-depth features on the sport, its history, the gigs , the Association and the clubs. All this will also be carried on the WMN's website. The coverage will be coordinated by Steve Grant, the News Editor, who can be reached on 01752 765538 or by email at sgrant@westernmorningnews.co.uk
