Why
Kayaking / Canoeing?
Hertfordshire
Canoe Club
This is a great sport that allows you to develop both technical and personal skills. It can lead you to many exhilarating situations, or just simply allowing you to paddle stretches of water observing the country side from a closer range. It does allow you an important release from the working week. Throughout the summer months we run beginners sessions (see Beginners and Training for details)
We are an expanding friendly club where membership interests vary between all forms of canoeing / kayaking. We have a good range of equipment available for hire at reasonable rates. A training programme has been developed to allow individuals the opportunity to follow the BCU * awards programme.
There are opportunities to practice moving water skills at the local weirs. As a club we can run specific courses upon request – contact us for further details.
As a club we organise numerous day or weekend trips away to suit all levels. These include white water, placid water and sea kayaking trips.
We do organise a race each year - the Great Ouse Race in Bedford, perhaps you fancy learning to paddle a racing kayak?
* What about the Equipment?
We have a good selection of boats and equipment that can be hired at reasonable rates. If you have your own kayak then we do offer a storage facility. See membership page for details.
* What to do next?
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced paddler and you have any further questions then please feel free to contact us.

If you are a beginner and are interested in trying kayaking then have a read of this. It may answer some of your questions about Herts Canoe Club beginners sessions. Beginners Sessions The first Sunday of every summer month from April 2008 we will run a beginners sessions. Each session will cost £5.00. This covers the cost of boat hire at a non member rate. Please remember to bring a change of clothes and a towel - you may get wet! The first session will be payable in advance. This helps HCC ensure that there are sufficient coaches and experienced paddlers around to help. You should phone Andy or come down to the club in person to sign up for the session. Your place will be confirmed once payment has been received. There is a max number of 10 people per session. The beginners sessions will run from April to October, 1* training will happen every Sunday. Beginners sessions will be lead by a BCU qualified coach and you will then be able to progress to 2 and 3* awards. Click here for more information regarding the BCU * awards. There may be some pool sessions being organised for beginners in the summer, this is dependant on the level of demand and coaches available. |
