Default Who's the head coach at Grendon?

Does anyone know if Rich Leech is staying on at Grendon for 2006?

In my view he turned that place around in 05 and improved the wakeboarding no end - if he's not around this year they will need to find somebody equal or better, or say Bye Bye to business......

I went to grendon twice last year and it quickly became one of my faviourate places. 20 minute sets instead of 10-15, online booking and good drivers/coaches that push you. All behind an X2.

Dont know what im doing next season but a few more sets there is defenatly on the cards.

That's my point - last year Grendon improved massively, and apart from the boat it was down to excellent coaching by Rich Leech and Jenna McAvoy.

There were rumours that Rich and / or Jenna weren't coming back for the 06 season - if this happens Grendon will lose that edge.......

Somebody must know if they're coming back this year?

I haven't heard him say he's leaving... am pretty sure he is staying.

I really have to hit up grendon more this year. Used to ride on winders with rich and chris but it seems i'm going to have to follow him down south...

Question

I contacted Grendon just before Christmas and asked the question - at that point they said they "weren't sure" if Rich was gonna be around for 06.............

I know the Grendon people check out Wakechat - perhaps they can give us an update?
