Masters Sprint
We welcome adults and teens 19+ years to try our Masters Sprint Paddling Program!
Our 2026 program is 10 weeks long and will start the week of June 15 to August 20, 2026.
Intermediate and Advanced Sprint Paddling
This group is perfect for those who have paddling experience in canoes and touring kayaks but are new to sprint boats or anyone looking to improve their paddling, technical skills and fitness.
Sessions focus on developing balance and technique, with expert coaching in both singles and team boats.
While coaches can accommodate paddlers that are more comfortable close to the dock or beach, the goal of the group will be to venture further from the dock to focus on technique, structured workouts, and timed intervals. All sessions are accompanied on the water by a coach/safety boat.
This program aligns with our fitness for life value and is best suited for those who are comfortable on or in the water as well as having prior experience in touring, white water or sprint paddling.
Experienced coaches from our High Performance program will ensure our adults and older teens have fun, are challenged and have opportunities to compete.
Participants will be encouraged and supported to compete at CanMas (age 25+) in Ottawa, August 30, 2026.
