Canoeing

TEENS ONLY
What is canoeing?
A great outdoor adventure activity club you can join this summer. Today, canoeing is one of the fastest growing sport that makes you fit and healthy. Beginners are welcomed that haven't paddled before.
Our coaches at Smarts Leisure Park are professionally trained with a first aid training qualification. Usually club activity members train their skills and techniques in our boats ready for the river.  We do canoe polo which is a thrilling, fast game having two teams (5 a side). The game primarily is to achieve a goal in the net.
Towards the last week at Smarts Leisure Park, members travel to Wales taking part in a competition, by now they would feel more confident canoeing.
