Squad Info

Winter Training


The Paddling Project is very excited about the 2011 winter as they are increasing their Sunday training sessions to EVERY week starting Sunday May 8th. They are also excited about extending their locations to now include RAYC every other weekend – so no more excuses!


Anyone is welcome to attend these squads however you should note that the sessions are aimed at a novice – intermediate level. All sessions will included a warm up, short safety and weather brief, technique work and intervals. The sessions may also include some skill components such as deep water remounts, starts and finishes and some basic race tactics.


Please note if you are a complete beginner we recommend that you attend the Takapuna sessions first and if you need to hire equipment you MUST participate at the Takapuna location as hire equipment is exclusively available at this location.
