Fancy being tied to a lovely canoe member, of course!!! With that sorted, be at the Dukes at 7pm on Thursday (15th Oct) night we have out annual three-legged bar crawl, where new members are tied to the tried and tested bunch who make up this club. Expect the odd race and challenge along the way down the Parade. This is a great way to know the club so come along, we would love to see as many new members as possible :)
Don't worry if you don't know where it is, a bunch of people in Canoe hoodies will be at the arts centre bus stop at 18:10! Any questions ask any of us in the blue rash vests at the pool sessions or post on here!

Thanks

Alan and Jeff

Welcome to the website of Warwick University Canoe Club and Warwick University Canoe Polo Club!

The Canoe Club pool sessions (in the campus pool) are:

  • Mondays 21:00-22:00
  • Wednesdays 20:30-22:00
  • Thursdays 15:00-16:00 

For the first two weeks all pool sessions are taster sessions so you don't have to join up yet, come along and give it a go! All the equipment is provided so all you need to worry about bringing along is yourself, swimming stuff and a towel. It doesn't matter if you've never kayaked before or are a 5* pro, we hope to see you there!

Canoe Polo have training sessions in the pool

  • Tuesdays 20:30-22:00
  • Saturdays 19:00-20:30

Again it doesn't matter if you've never heard of canoe polo before, all abilities can join and learn how to play! All you need to bring to the pool sessions are swimming stuff, t-shirt and a towel as we provide all the kit.

Details of our upcoming socials will be released soon so watch this space! (We also end up in the pub after most pool sessions)

If you have any questions feel free message one of the exec members or post on our facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/warwickcanoe/). Hope to see you all soon!

I've just been to pick up the garage keys for the nene and I have good news! The new fangled electronic system is up and running.

Anyone who is on the current garage list can go along to the gatehouse and be put on the system so that all you need to take out the garage key is your student card.
