Winter Pool Sessions
Throughout the fall and winter the Wapiti Whitewater Kayakers offer pool sessions at the Eastlink Centre for it’s members. We’ve also got sessions for our members in BC at the Fort St. John Aquatic Centre.
We run both Structured weeks and Open weeks, Check the calendar to know what you’re signing up for.
Structured weeks are all-ages this year, but know you will be doing drills and learning sport specific skills and playing team games. Each structured week will vary, from Polo skills to Playboating or slalom/boater cross, or a mix. Structured weeks require you to have learned your wet exit confidently.
Open weeks are all-ages and any skill level. Instructors will be available to teach all paddlers to their skill level. The time is unstructured so paddlers can practice or play to their hearts content.
In Grande Prairie, sessions are Mondays from 6PM to 7PM. In order to ensure you can utilize a full hour of pool time please meet below the dive tower at least 20 minutes prior to start time for boat and gear fitting. See the Calendar to confirm the sessions you would like to attend. It is important to sign up and pay ahead of time to save your spot. Only 12 Season passes will be available and a maximum of 15 participants per week to avoid over-crowding.
If you do not have your own gear (boat, PFD, spraydeck, paddle), the club has equipment available for each session.
