    Dame Lisa Carrington's coach has no doubt the Kiwi kayaking queen will cope with the demands of four events, at the Canoe Sprint World Championships


    It starts overnight in Canada.

    Carrington will compete in the K1 200, K1 500, K2 500 and K4 500 over the next five days as she looks to add to her haul of nine world championship gold medals in Halifax.

    Coach Gordon Walker says the schedule is tough but manageable.



    There are 14 New Zealanders competing at the regatta.
