Freshers Paddle 2011

Spark* Article

written by Jamie Boyd

The canoe club is predominantly a white water club; however dabble in all sorts of different disciplines including canoe polo, canoe surf, freestyle, marathon and sprint! We are a very active club with 2 river sessions, 1 pool session and 2 socials every week. We are a very relaxed club and don’t mind people popping in and out when they please.

The club had a great day at freshers' fayre and enjoyed meeting all the freshers and spreading the work about our action packed sport! With hardly a moment to breathe, on the 7th October 2011, we hosted FRESHERS' PADDLE, this is where we give to as many freshers as possible the opportunity to come down and give it a go! This year we took nearly 100 freshers down to our purpose built facility and hosted a great 'introduction to paddling' session, BBQ and infamous canoe club party!!!

If we sound like a club you want to get involved in we are always welcoming new people and you can give it a go free whenever you like.
