Usk1.JPG (43266 bytes)Ringwood Canoe Club was formed in 1987 with the primary aim of introducing people to the fun of canoeing. The club is principally a 'recreational' one and has grown steadily over the years and has now settled at approximately 100 members, most of whom live within a 20 mile radius of Ringwood.

 While the club does not have a specific juniors’ section, many children have been introduced to canoeing through our family memberships and introductory courses.

 

 

Regular Meetings

Mudeford: Unless specific away-events have been organised, the club meets on Tuesday evenings from 18:30 at Mudeford Quay throughout the summer. If the conditions are right, members also occasionally paddle at Mudeford on a Sunday morning,

Over the winter months, the club has a number of swimming pool sessions for members at Ringwood Recreation Centre and a full calendar of events for weekends

A Packed Calendar

EL-12973.JPG (33740 bytes)The club organises a wide variety of day or weekend trips throughout the year. These range from placid river and open sea trips, through to surfing and white water weekends. The only common theme is the absence of competition: we believe in competing against the elements and not each other.

The club goes to considerable lengths to ensure that non-canoeists are not left out. Many events accommodate the entire family, including summer picnics, barbecues, beer and skittles evenings and weekend trips away

Safety in NumberssCCmonky.jpg (22005 bytes)

Canoeing is safer in the company of others. The club has a number of very experienced paddlers and maintains a range of safety equipment.
