Activities

The club offers family recreational paddling which endeavors to sample all facets of the sport. just for fun. As such, we do not organise or partake in competition events but operate as a group of like minded people who enjoy the sport of canoeing whilst paddling as part of a club with inherent companionship and safety in numbers. The club paddles all year round and arranges many away trips to other waters in order to experience all aspects of the sport including placid water and canal type paddles, kayak surfing, white water river running, canoe camping, indoor pool sessions and much more in between.


Training / Instruction

Members are given instruction and encouraged to progress through the BCU (British Canoe Union) star system at a rate that suits their individual skill and enthusiasm.


Membership

Membership to the club is split in two sections Full, or Associate.
Full memberships are welcome to paddle with the club during all canoeing sessions.
Associate Membership is for those wish to be associated with the club and not actually join in with canoeing sessions, but only want to use the club facilities to store boats and other small water craft.
