The University of Bath Canoe Club Welcomes you ...
Interested in taking up a new sport? Or perhaps you already kayak? Either way, the University of Bath Canoe Club can cater for you!! We have access to three swimming pool sessions per week and divide them between coaching BCU star award skills and canoe polo. We provide coaching for all levels from beginner to advanced. As we have trips most weekends there is a chance for everyone to practise their skills on moving water suitable for their ability.
And then there's the Socials... Canoe socials are legendary and prove alcohol and water really do mix! Our socials ensure everyone gets to know each other quickly (and gets the rumour mill turning)! For more information on socials contact our current Social Sec.
We have a trip planned for every weekend this semester, keep an eye on the trips page for info closer to the time! Remember, we have all the equipment necessary so you can paddle without raiding your loan! Check out the Trips page where you can sign up.
Membership is just £20 (£30 if this is your first club in the SU) including the use of equipment.
There is also the Sports Pass. This is not required to join the club but can provide some benefits. The Sports Pass gives you access to the 50m Pool which we use for skills sessions for both beginners and for the more advanced freestyle sessions (Freestyle can still be learnt out on the river, but the 50m Pool is heated). The 50m Pool is also used for our weekly Canoe Polo sessions and is a must for anyone who wishes to join any of the Polo teams.
We cannot run Pay to Play session, as to run one of these, currently requires us to stop all people who have a sports pass from attending that session. Therefore if you wish to do any of the activities described above, you must buy the sports pass.
The Sports Pass does not stop you from coming to any 50m Pool taster sessions or to the Bath Canoe Polo Tournament later in the year.
If you missed the sports fair then don't worry, you can still join on line HERE.You will have to have completed ROL and registered on bathstudent first.
If you still have any questions after looking around the site then please contact our chairman.
