RACING SERIES
NWWC Cat 3 and 4 Race Series
This series of 13 races from March to August involves fields solely devoted for category 3/4 women racers. This Series encourages more women to start racing, without the intimidation factor of having to race against women with far more experience, and with more opportunity to learn pack skills.
