The Club
In light of the government’s Stay at Home measures and following new guidance issued by the Environment Agency and Canal & River Trust, which impacts the usage of waterways, British Canoeing has further revised its position and now strongly recommends that all paddlesport activity should immediately cease on rivers, waterways and coastal areas until further notice.
This is in line with government advice requiring people to stay at home, except for very limited purposes, avoiding social gatherings and all non-essential travel.
Therefore we are suspending our activities until advice changes.
Upton Warren Canoe and Kayak Club, based in Bromsgrove, is a friendly recreational club for both experienced paddlers and complete beginners.
We offer coached sessions in a safe, fun environment for a range of paddle sports including canoe, kayak and Stand Up Paddleboarding. Our sessions are led by our members, so we can provide British Canoeing training awards or just a relaxed environment on the water. The experienced paddler will find opportunities to paddle with other like-minded boaters on moving water, try an aspect of paddling they haven't done before, work towards coach awards or simply relax on the lake after a hard day at work.
Outdoor Sessions normally run from April to September on a Monday evening. They start at 6.30pm to start on the water at 7:00pm. You are welcome to bring our own equipment or borrow equipment from the club. At the lake sessions you can enrol on the training courses in both canoe and kayak. Once a month we will make a local trip to a canal or river to practice our skills in different environment.
Pool Sessions from September to March still on a Monday evening. Coaching is available and is geared towards kayaking skills. You can bring your own boat to the pool or use one of the dedicated pool boats.
Trips are run by the club throughout the year from social events for the whole club to specialist coached trips for those interested in developing skills in specific environments. Typically there is a weekend day-trip once a month, plus several more weekends away for whitewater, surfing, sea kayaking and touring. We try to make sure we offer variety of environments to suit a range of abilities and interests.
