Welcome
Welcome to the Club's Web site.
We hope that you not only find it useful
but that you will actively contribute and let everyone know
when you are paddling or organising a trip that others might join.
Canoe and kayak sport is truly wonderful, as relaxing as you wish or as
challenging as any extreme sport can be. Whatever your interests,
they can probably be encompassed, be it just chilling out on the river on a
balmy summers evening or striving to represent your country - perhaps at
the London Olympics. Yes we do have athletes working on that plan as well
as paddlers who prefer surf or sea canoeing and those that just tour.
Paddle sport is growing fast, so fast in fact that it's a struggle to
provide the introductory courses we need to. Sign up early please but don’t
be put off if you have to wait.
If
you are already a paddler and would like to help with coaching we can
support your development at the Club with allocation of a mentor and
qualification costs re-imbursement. If you are a competition paddler then
do get in touch with the appropriate committee member for Marathon, Sprint
or White Water or better still come along on a Wednesday evening to paddle
at 6.00 or to join the Club evening at 8.00 (during the summer).
It can seem a very busy Club and initially it may be a little bit daunting
to try to get to know everyone but it really is a very friendly place and
we will give you the warmest welcome we possibly can, if you get stuck in
any way let me know and I will do my best to help.
Stuart West,
Chairman,
Worcester Canoe Club.
