Wednesday Kit Fixing

Posted 10y 4mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Charlie
Hello all I'm going to be doing a Polo boat fixing afternoon and will be showing people how to fix the boats. I would love the help as there is a lot that needs to be done, it will be a great way to learn about the boats, and see how they are looked after, and we will be building the new goal and helmets. So if youÔÇÖre free after 3:30 on Wednesday come down to give a hand, even if it's just for a short time. Charlie.

Training courses

Posted 10y 4mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Ollie

Hi all, I hope everyone who went on Freshers had a great time despite everything that happened and that everyone is excited about our next trip to Tyne Tour in a couple of weeks. I know you all can't get enough of kayaking and all want to improve your kayaking skills so we are looking at running some training courses for you to get involved with over the coming year. We are currently looking at running: white water safety course, a 3* kayaking award and possibly a 2* as well depending on interest.

The 3* kayaking is aimed mainly at those who are fairly competent on moving water and dealing with decent sized rapids. So not really for those of you that are completely new to the sport.

White water safety and rescue is aimed at people of a similar level as the 3* but would give you vital skills to help ensure your own and everyoneÔÇÖs safety on the river.

2* is suitable for anyone with just a reasonable skill base, we run through the skills required within our pool sessions term one so anyone who feels comfortable doing all these skills would be suitable for taking their 2* award even without any white water experience.

So if any of the above courses sound interesting then please leave a comment or take part in the Facebook poll. DonÔÇÖt worry youÔÇÖre not signing your life away to anything (at least not yet), this is purely to gauge interest and official signups will be released if sufficient interest is shown. Also I will post more information about prices, dates and locations shortly. If you want to know any more about the courses, want to suggest more courses or wondering what you would be suitable for then feel free to ask either myself or another exec member at any pool session or leave me a message on Facebook J
