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.

Herefordshire and Worcestershire Sports Club of the Year

You may have seen that Worcester Canoe Club won the Worcester City Sports Club of the Year a week or so ago, this award progressed the Club to the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Sports awards which were presented last night at the Worcester Warriors New Ground.

I am very pleased to announce that Worcester Canoe Club was awarded the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Sports Club of the Year 2009.

May I take this opportunity to thank everyone at the club for all their hard work over many years to bring the club to the position that it is now in. I’m looking forward to many years of even more success both from a club and individual member perspective.
