Manchester Canoe Club
Pool Sessions
We are now running beginners & rolling courses at Hazel Grove Pools on Sunday evenings.
Members and non-members can also join us to practice their skills in a warm environment, with sessions running until 25th March 2012. There are two 45-minute sessions at 7:10pm and 7:55pm.
Welcome
Welcome to Manchester Canoe Club.
Manchester Canoe Club is one of the oldest Canoe Clubs in Great Britain. It was founded in 1933, and since then has been involved in the development of the sport, particularly in the areas of river touring on both placid water and white water, and the competitive disciplines of White Water Racing and Canoe Slalom.
Our aim is to enable people of all types and ages to enjoy paddling safely on moving water and to improve their skills by providing a community of like minded people.
Lune Tour Report 2011
The Lune - an improver’s day out.
Rumours of a legendary 17 swim paddle down the Lune had already circulated by the time we'd brightened up Burton services with 25 or so multicoloured kayaks. We were reassured that this had 'all been down to a broken thigh brace' and pressed on. An impressive spell of random cooperation eventually landed paddlers and kit at the 'get on' and we were off, away from the bridge and round a wide sweeping bend.
Manchester's Own Make the Grade!
Written by Nathan Stevenson
The hard work has paid off for three of Manchester Canoe Club’s talented junior slalom paddlers as they are selected for the National Junior Winter Squads.
Amy and Jade Hollick in the Ladies’ Kayak class and Alastair Paterson in the Canoe singles, all seek to make their mark in the slalom world as they train to perform over the coming months. You all have the full support of the club!
