The
Midget Class was replaced with U17 in 2013 and again with
U16 in 2019
NB:
When the U17 Age Class was introduced in 2013, it included
the same 22 events as the discontinued Midget Class (plus
the new Mixed C15). Because the new U16 Age Class contained
8 corresponding events, and because Canoe Kayak Canada
continues to record best times for those events in comparison
to the former Midget events, I have indicated here that
these same events for the U17 Class began recording in
2013. Furthermore, with a new age-class designation of
U16 in 2019, best times for events are aligned with the
event that continues at the same age level and distance.
U17 as a class was discontinued in 2019.
