The announcement says:

Southern Champion, Alice Davis (14) has achieved outstanding results in her RS Tera, RS Feva and now RS Tera Pro sailing. In addition to competitive sailing all over the country, Alice is an active member of the Junior Committee at her sailing club, Great Moor SC and a brilliant role model for young sailors just starting out.

Alice commented: "I'm really pleased and proud to win, there are a lot of great sailors in the southern region and to be chosen for the award is a real achievement.

"I love sailing, on the water you are taken away from everything else on the shore and left to yourself. Not to mention all the friends that I have made over the past few years, the social aspect is amazing and I love every event I go to."
