Kia Byers captured a silver medal in the Women’s K-4 500m event at the Canoe/Kayak World Cup this past weekend in Szeged, Hungary. Kia, a member of the Wascana Racing Canoe Club, is on the senior team representing Canada at this year’s world cup events.

Kia almost came away with another medal in the Women’s K-4 200m event, finishing 4th, just 3/100ths of a second behind the third place crew, also from Canada.

This is Kia’s 3rd year on the World Cup circuit. She will be returning home to Regina to train in hopes of representing Canada at the Senior World Championships later this summer in Dartmouth.

Full results are available on the official website.
