Think you might be interested in sprint canoe & kayak racing, but you're not sure what it's all about? This is your program. Sprint Starter is an accelerated introduction for those who want to see what being in sprint paddling as a sport would be like. Sprint Starter participants will work with their own dedicated coach alongside the Youth Sprint program, with opportunities to shadow Youth Sprint paddlers through some of their practice elements. No experience is necessary, just an interest in getting involved.

If you decide to continue after your Sprint Starter program, transfer into our Youth Sprint membership is streamlined and the cost of the Sprint Starter program can be applied to your membership fees. Prorated fees may be available for late summer transfer.
