Friday Morning 5km

Paddling to Prebends and back. Dependent on water levels please keep an eye on the group chat.

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 Polo

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!

How to Erg Workshop

A session led by Ryan (a pro at ergs) on how to improve your erging technique.
This session is for complete beginners to erging (the best first session to go to!) as well as those who have been erging for a while but want some tips on their technique or to improve, and everyone in between.

Erging is very useful to improve your paddling technique which will help you paddle faster and for longer distances. It is useful for all specialisms including canoe polo, racing and white water. Even if you usually only go to Wednesday chill paddles but want to try out some erg sessions, come along!

This is possibly a one off session (depending on interest) so definitely don't miss your chance to make use of Ryan's expertise!

If you don't know where the rowing tank is, you can be collected from Maiden Castle reception.
Please meet at 4pm on Wednesday 25th February- perfect for after a Wednesday chill paddle! (Will end with lots of time for you to get ready for the social)

Any questions please ask in the groupchat, Maddie or Ryan. (Can also pass questions onto Ryan if you can't find him)
