Thank you to everyone who has supported, visited, boarded, skied and spent time with us during the 2026 season.
As another great year on the water comes to a close, the time has come for the club boats to be tucked away for the winter months. Thankfully, our hardy private boat members will continue making the most of the lake throughout the colder season, with dry suits very much recommended!
This year, we’d also like to recognise some of the individuals who have helped make the season such a success. Below are the winners of the inaugural TWSC End of Season Awards for our Club Boat Members.
Congratulations to all of this year’s recipients, and thank you to everyone who contributes to making TWSC such a friendly, supportive and enjoyable club.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back for the 2027 season. In the meantime, please keep in touch over the winter months via Facebook, Instagram and the members’ WhatsApp group.
See you on (and in) the water in 2027!
🏆 Most Improved Water Skier
Improvement isn’t always about the biggest scores. It’s about commitment, turning up, listening, learning and putting the work in tow after tow, week after week.
This year’s winner has demonstrated exactly that. They’ve pushed themselves, developed their skills on the water and gone from beginner to competent skier throughout the season.
For their dedication and progress, the award for Most Improved Water Skier goes to… NATHAN
🏆 Most Improved Wakeboarder
Wakeboarding has a habit of teaching you humility. Just when you think you’ve nailed something, there’s another challenge waiting. Then you catch an edge, get launched into (and under) the water and spend the next five minutes wondering how the lake managed to get into places you didn’t even know you had.
This year’s joint winners have shown determination, resilience and a real willingness to keep learning. The progress they’ve made over the season has been great to see. There was forced improvement and the need to dock start (rather than sitting) due to the lake’s low water levels this year.
The award for Most Improved Wakeboarder goes to… JOHN D and SCOTT (SCOTTY)
🏆 Best Newcomer
Joining a waterski club can be daunting at first. New faces, new skills, new people and often a steep learning curve.
Our Best Newcomer hasn’t just embraced the sport, they’ve embraced the club. They’ve got stuck in, become part of the community and made a real impression in their first season.
It’ll come as no surprise that the award for Best Newcomer goes to… NATHAN
🏆 Boat Crew Member of the Year
Anyone can see the skier. Not everyone sees the people making it all happen behind the scenes. We’re a club run by its members, and we’d like to thank everyone who gives their time to help keep it running. Whether it’s driving, spotting, helping on the dock, maintaining equipment or simply lending a hand when needed, every contribution makes a difference.
This year’s winner has consistently gone above and beyond in supporting members and helping the club operate safely and efficiently.
Safe driving, spotting, helping members, launching boats, putting equipment away, maintaining equipment, looking after the books, dealing with legal issues and making sure the club runs smoothly.
The award for Boat Crew Member of the Year goes to… BOB
🏆 Chairman’s Choice
This award isn’t voted for and it isn’t based on scores or statistics.
The Chairman’s Choice Award is given to someone who has made a special impression this season through their attitude, enthusiasm and contribution to the club.
The recipient has brought renewed energy, positivity, elegance, style and commitment and has quickly become a valued part of our waterski family.
The Chairman’s Choice Award goes to… LISA (PRINCESS)
🏆 Club Spirit Award
This award recognises something that can’t always be measured.
Some people don’t just belong to a club, they help create it. They’re there when help is needed, they’re the first to welcome new members and they contribute far more than most people ever realise.
This year’s recipient embodies everything that’s great about our club. Their enthusiasm, support and commitment help make our club what it is.
For living and breathing the spirit of the club, the Club Spirit Award goes to… JOHN H
🏆 Commitment Award
At TWSC, commitment isn’t just about being on the water. It’s about being part of the club, supporting fellow members and helping wherever you can.
This year’s recipient returned to the club with enthusiasm, only to suffer an injury that prevented them from taking part as planned. Many would have stepped back. Instead, they continued to turn up, volunteer their time and help others enjoy their time on the water.
Whether it was driving, supporting members, helping club activities run smoothly, or simply being there when needed, their dedication never wavered. Their willingness to contribute despite personal setbacks is a brilliant example of the spirit that makes TWSC such a special place.
The Commitment Award for dedication and loyalty goes to… KEV
