NEED A BOAT?

If you need to hire boat/paddle contact the Equipment Officer a couple of days in advance of the session. A suitable boat will be brought to Saltford for your use. Buoyancy aids, helmets and spraydecks are also available. For further information see equipment.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Club Night is sociable and fun. It is a chance for paddlers of all abilities to meet up and paddle together.The club embraces a wide range of disciplines from open canoeing to freestyle kayaking and much in between. At NACC you do not need to be pigeon holed into one discipline!

From age 8 to 80+ are welcome to participate. All we ask is for water confidence and a positve 'have a go' attitude. BCU qualified coaches are on hand to supervise paddling activities.

WHERE?

Meet at Saltford Shallows, River Avon.
