POOL SESSION AT THE QUARRY POOL
Winter 2025/26 pool sessions - come and book onto a series of pool sessions to hone and refine your paddle skills in a safe, warm environment. Master your paddle technique, your bracing, or get that roll completely solid.
Club coaches will be on hand to support and assist. These sessions are especially good for paddlers starting out on their paddling careers, or for those wishing to master a specific skill set. They are less suited to experienced paddlers (you may be interested in the polo sessions instead when they start...).
Pool sessions are in blocks of 2 (initial one only) 4 and for one hour slots. Please arrive at the pool at least 15 minutes early to get ready.
We have boats at the pool for use. The session is not suitable for SUPs. You can bring your own boat but it must be spotless clean inside and out, and will be inspected by a coach prior to put in. If not clean enough we will need to ask you to use a club boat.
A maximum of 2 sea boats can be used on the pool, and only on the 8pm session. You would need to bring your own. Please contact Steve on secretary@shrewsburycanoeclub.org if you intend on using a Sea Boat to check there is space to do so.
Please bring swim wear, and we strongly recommend goggles and nose clips.
The price for the four week block is £40, £20 for 2 weeks - this is non-refundable unless the Club needs to cancel a session for any reason. If you can't make a session then you are welcome to make this known through the Facebook site where often other members will take you up on the offer. You'll need to make payment arrangements with the other party directly in this circumstance independently.
In the event an evening is not sold out then one week bookings may be made available at a higher cost of £15 per session.
If for any reason you can't make a block having booked it, please let us know and we will try and sell the block to another member - if successful we will refund your booking.
Any queries please contact secretary@shrewsburycanoeclub.org

So its time once again to plan that lovely get away this time in Scotland: dates 26 June to 5th July ( including journey up and back). The River Spey is one of Britain's most iconic white water rivers following the whisky trail through the Highlands taking in Loch Insch, Aviemore, Granton and fun rapids along the journey such as the Washing Machine, Knockandoo and plenty of places to learn skills. So would be rude not to paddle it in a canoe as its the most iconic canoe WW trip in Britain. Also plan to paddle some of the Findhorn ( a large river with 4 whitewater runs from the grade 2 to up to grade 4 depending on whos coming ) first come first served as at present I am the only leader and coach on this trip and yes its traditional canoes only. Plans for the trip will be agreed depending on who wants to go but be assured the traditional grade 1-2(3) Spey will be paddled possibly from beginning to the bay. Plan is for us to stay at hotels or air BNB accommodation, shared driving for shuttles and to have a chill out adventure. what's not to enjoy
any questions give me a email Davidjcoan@hotmail.com
