Program Overview

The Development program is a fun introduction to off season training for canoe/kayak. The development program is targeted towards paddlers who will be U9, U10, or U12 in summer 2025. Athletes work on the technical, and physical skills necessary for success in our sport!

Program Requirements

The program is meant for paddlers who have their balance in 'tippy boats,' are comfortable paddling up the lake, and have the ability and interest to paddle for up to 75 minutes at a time. Paddlers selecting this option should have completed either U8, U9, U10, or U12 programs during the summer season.

Older or more advanced paddlers within the above age groups may prefer the Prep program, which includes more sessions per week, more weeks of training, and a more advanced focus. You can speak to coach Rob about the various options available. 

Training Schedule

Practices will be held Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 4:00 - 5:15. 

This schedule is intended to give the greatest flexiblity. Paddlers are welcome to come to all four sessions, but the expectation for our youngest trainers is that they will attend three sessions per week.

Start Date and Cost

The program begins on Tuesday, September 3rd and runs until Thursday October 10th.

The program cost will be $120 for the six week program.
