Bayside Outrigger Canoe Club

Bayside Outrigger Canoe Club Founded in Aug 2009 by Rowe Wharehinga & Susan Bower, developed & established with the help of whanau We thank you for your waters and land on which we meet.

We, including those who have journeyed from wide and far, acknowledge the traditional owners, the Quandamooka people of the three tribes Nunukul, Goenpul and Ngugi of Moreton Bay and North Stradbroke Islands. And pay respects to your Elders throughout all time. We walk together in solidarity of the shared pain of the past, and the shared hope of a better future. The sport of outrigger canoeing is

relatively new to Australia’s oceanic sporting scene. It has a Polynesian history and today is enjoyed by people from all walks of life. It is an all-season sport starting at 8 years of age where they race as a team of 6 including an older more experienced person to steer the canoe. Our age divisions go all the way up to Platinum which are 70+. Social and / or competitively, we always ensure that all members while in the canoe, paddle safely and responsibly respecting the waterways we paddle in, the canoe, the people, and the rules we have to abide by. Please email your interest to [email protected] or drop in to see us at William St, Raby Bay, Cleveland (next to the Volunteer Marine Rescue) with parking in Raby Bay Boulevard (walking across the grass and beach area to reach our compound).

Hey Brissi!!! I want your lil minions… and their friends πŸ˜‚ (ages 5–10yo)

MINNOWS AGE GROUP:
Turning 5 in 2026 (Jan–Dec)
Up to turning 10 in 2026 (Jan–Dec)

🚫 Turning 4 in 2026 – a bit too young (non-compliant stage πŸ˜…)

How it works:
Teams usually have 5 paddlers with a passive steerer (experienced steerer 14yo+)

The kids will be learning:
🌊 How to paddle
πŸ›Ÿ Water safety
β˜€οΈ Sun safety

…all while we try to get them to listen with the decorations they were born with πŸ‘‚πŸ‘‚

However whanau water safety and sun safety definitely starts with you. Keep an eye on them even when they're with their coach, make sure they have sunscreen on, make sure they have water and are clothed appropriately including footwear.

I would like to extend this invitation out to any new 10 to 12 year olds who still want/need to learn or have never paddled before.

I think I look forward to seeing all your minions on the water this weekend 🀣 😱😎😍

Join us for the final session of our Junior (5yo-19yo) Come and TRI Series Session #3.

Who relishes the opportunity to engage in some friendly competition with their kids, emerge in triumphant victory over them, then bask in the glory of their victory?🍬🀠

Or, conversely, who might find themselves on the losing end, become a sore loser by depriving their kids of a special indulgence, such as a McDonald's ice cream they were promised.πŸ™„πŸ†
