Wednesday Chill Paddle

***NOTE: The river levels have the potential to get a lil *spicy* at this time of year so the session may be called off last minute. Please keep an eye on the group chat.***

THE WEDNESDAY WARRIORS CONTINUE AT MC 13:30-15:00

The usual relaxed Wednesday session! Open to all with beginners especially welcome, this is simply a really chill couple of hours on the river. If you want to get into kayaking or simply have a fun afternoon session on the river this is the session for you! 

Please bring a fleece to wear on the water, spare shoes, plenty of spare clothes, and a towel. It is best to avoid jeans on the water as these shrink when wet. It is now getting very chilly, so an extra fleece is a good idea.

Any questions please ask in the socials chat, message the club instagram, or message Devon (Vice Captain). 

Thursday evening Ergs

Erging. Bring water. Faff may occur but session is 30 minutes, message Maddie if you can't find the rowing tank. 

Friday Pool session

Friday pool session. 

This session will focus on Polo skills.

Meet @ boathouse at 7pm sharp. We will load up the cars and drive you to Darlington. You'll need swimming stuff (e.g. t shirt and shorts) and a water bottle/towel. Bring some snacks if you like - biscuits are provided afterwards. We get back to Durham about 10:45.

If you haven't been before, you'll have to do a short swim test. This involves swimming two lengths of a 25m pool (total 50m) and treading water for 1 minute. No specific stroke or great technique required.

If you unsign from a pool session within 24hrs and can't find someone to replace you, you will still be charged. If you do unsign, put a message on the group offering your place to people. Price for members is £6. Non-member price is £9.

Sunday Morning Polo Training

Polo session open to anyone. 

All paddling kit is provided. Please make sure you bring sufficient clothing to wear on the river (you may get wet, so bear this in mind!). We suggest non-cotton thermal base layers and fleeces. Make sure you also bring a towel and warm dry clothes to change into afterwards.

If you have any questions, please drop a message on the socials chat or message a member of our exec. See you there!!
