Lough Erne Yacht Club made their way to Mar Menor in Spain to represent Team Ireland in the Topper Sailing Dinghy World Championships last week.

Junior pair Adam Green and Ben McCaldin travelled over to take part in scorching conditions as over 30 people made the trip to represent Team Ireland.

The duo competed in 15 races over the course of the five days that saw 178 competitors all take part.

10 nations were included at the event including China, Malta, Brazil, Australia, Great Britain and Spain representatives.

Green, from the Banbridge Academy, finished 13th overall while McCaldin, from Enniskillen Royal Grammar School, took 15th place in an intense few days of action.

The boys were supported by family members including their younger brothers Ezra Green and Lewis McCaldin, in what is the highlight of the sailing calendar and a championship to remember.
