Halifax Canoe Club, based in Sowerby Bridge, Halifax, is a lively and family-focused club situated on the beautiful River Calder. Offering a variety of activities for paddlers of all levels, the club takes pride in its multi-award-winning status for exceptional coaching and exciting trips throughout the year.
Beginners can start with the club's beginners' courses, held either on the river or in the pool, depending on the season. These courses provide a safe space for newcomers to learn the basics of canoeing and kayaking.
Located in the heart of Sowerby Bridge, members have access to both flat water and a man-made white water course on the River Calder. Whether you enjoy the calmness of flat water or the thrill of white water rapids, Halifax Canoe Club offers both.
While kayaking is the main focus, including both flat water and white water paddling, members can also try playboating (freestyle), slalom, open canoe paddling, and even surfing.
In addition to regular activities, Halifax Canoe Club organises day and weekend trips on other rivers across the country, as well as open canoe weekends, sea kayaking weekends, and slalom race weekends. For the more adventurous, there have even been trips to France and Slovenia.
Members actively participate in various events nationwide, like freestyle, slalom, and wild water racing competitions. The club encourages and supports members in these pursuits.
For more information, visit the club's website, where you can find an events list and contact details for any specific questions. The FAQ section is also a great resource for anyone interested in joining.
Additionally, members and supporters can contribute to the club's funds while shopping online through an easy fundraising platform, raising donations with every purchase.
Halifax Canoe Club welcomes everyone passionate about canoeing and kayaking, from beginners to experienced paddlers. With a range of activities, dedicated coaching, and a friendly community, the club is a perfect place for individuals and families to enjoy the sport and create lasting memories on the water.
