Intro to Paddling - Atom U11 

(September 9- 30)

Over three weeks the paddlers will progress though all the basic skills of sprint kayaking.  Paddlers will learn about water safety rules for sprint boats, how to balance, paddle, and train in sprint kayaks and canoes. Each practice they will do a warm up, practice/work out, and cool down.  This program will set paddlers up with all the necessary skills to paddle canoes and kayaks competitively in both singles and crew boats.The goal is to teach good training habits and a love for being outdoors and on the water. 

To reinforce safe paddling skills, all participants are required to wear life-jackets or PFDs any time they are on the water. All of Rideau’s paddling programs are led by friendly, dependable, knowledgeable and certified coaches. 

If you completed the Swim Assessment previously this year, you do not have to do it again (if you have done Canoe Kids or Intro to Sprint you have already done it). If you have never completed the RCC Swim Assessment, you will need to do it before getting in a boat. For further details click HERE
