| Y clwb yn derbyn grant gan y Gist Gymunedol Club receives grant from the Community Chest |
|
News:- The club has been awarded a grant of £1,000 from the Sports Council Wales's Community Chest. This is to be spent entirely on training, to start some club members on the coaching progression, or in the case of current coaches to continue their development. We plan: to get 6 members through the BCU foundation and safety course, and 4 through the White Water Safety and Rescue Course; to see 4 trained (or assessed) as 4* white water river leaders, and 1 assessed as a 4* sea kayaking leader. Achieving those goals should put the club in a much better position to organise regular trips on Grade 2/3 rivers and coastal sea trips. Pool session:- We are now running two pool sessions a week. Both are being held at Fitzalan High School. The pool will NOT be open on Saturday 11th April. It will be open on the Saturdays of April 18,25, May 2, AND 9 (correction to an earlier posting), 16, 23, 30, June 6, 13, 20, 27. Wednesday eve. sessions will be held on April 8, 15, 22 and 29. We'll review the situation again then, as the evenings get lighter. The map shows the location: View Larger Map New pool fees:- For the first two family members £3 each for one hour, £6 each for two hours (two hours only available if numbers permit. People coming for just the second hour will have priority for that second hour). For 3rd or more family member, fees are halved, i.e £1.50 for 1 hour, £3 for two. Non-members (for a max. of 3 weeks only): £4 an hour.
Dates for the calendar:
Whether you have just started to canoe or are an experienced canoeist we would welcome you
at our small friendly club. Despite the name, we are a Cardiff based kayaking and canoeing club (established in 1983): we do not paddle Dragon Boats! We cater for all ages from 9 to 90. We hold fun pool sessions but training is offered
too by WCA qualified coaches, and, if you join us on our trips
on rivers you get the chance to take Star Awards. We meet every Saturday
(except during school holidays) at Fitzalan High
School, Lawrenny Avenue, Cardiff. |
