Last night we had our weekly paddle and splash session! 🌊🛶

It was absolutely brilliant to see a few new faces joining the usual fun. We spent the evening doing what we do best: floating around, jumping onto the canal, sliding down the weir, going with the flow, and splashing around in the waves!

👇 What's next?

Don't miss our next session tomorrow for our Friday Float to Mirfield! We'll be heading out for some well-deserved refreshments. 😁🍻

Another incredible day on the Afon Tryweryn! 🌊🛶

We had an absolute blast out on the water today with two fantastic groups. The crew on the Upper section were busy shredding the river—surfing, boofing, and executing the odd "submarine move" to perfection!

Down on the Lower section, it was a monumental day for the club. A huge congratulations to Lewis and Richard for knocking their River Leader assessments clean out of the park! Your hard work has officially paid off. 🥳🎉

We also want to give a massive thank you and a giant "well done" to two of our youngest club paddlers. They paddled hard for two straight days on the lower river, providing the realistic guiding scenarios that allowed our amazing volunteers to gain their qualifications. We are so proud of you both!

An achievement like this takes a village. The journey for our new leaders started a few years ago with foundational training and safety courses. We owe a massive debt of gratitude to Ty Nant Outdoors, river_flair_dave, Paddle UK, and every single person who has supported them with advice and safety coverage.

We are incredibly lucky to have such a supportive, passionate community club. Here’s to many more safe, fun miles on the river! 🥂💦

🎉 WHAT A DAY ON THE TRYWERYN... AND WE'RE NOT DONE YET! 🎉

The Pennine Canoe Club took over the River Tryweryn today, and what an absolutely cracking day it was for everyone involved! We had a massive turnout split across the river, showing exactly what our club is all about. 🌊🛶

Here is how the day looked:

The Lower Tryweryn Crew: Enjoyed some fantastic moving water, sharpening those skills, and having a brilliant time on the lower section.

The Upper Tryweryn Group: Took on the faster, technical white water and absolutely smashed it. 🤙

The Big Celebration: A massive congratulations to Richard, who was out on the river for his River Leader Assessment... and he PASSED! 🥂🎉

A huge thank you to Richard for stepping up. We are incredibly proud to have another highly qualified volunteer leader to help keep our club paddling, safe, and growing.

🔥 Refuel, Debrief & Look Ahead to Tomorrow! 🔥

The action hasn't stopped just because the sun is going down. We’re currently gathered around the campfire, enjoying some well-deserved good food, a few laughs, and a proper debrief.

We are fueling up and getting ready to do it all over again tomorrow, because the assessments aren't finished yet! A massive good luck to Lewis and Richard No.2 who are stepping up for their assessments tomorrow. You’ve both got this! 🙌🥩🔥

Thank you to everyone who made today so special. Now, let's get some food down us and get ready to support Lewis and Richard No.2 tomorrow! Check out the action from the day and our campsite setup in the photos! 👇

Intense Action on the River! 🤽‍♂️🛶

Things got a bit competitive down at Battyeford, Mirfield last night! Our players had an absolute blast during a fast-paced canoe polo training session.

While we always love welcoming anyone who wants to try paddlesports, it's worth noting that these specific action shots show some of our more experienced players training at a higher level. The club has paddlers training all week long across all different skill sets—whether you are looking for a gentle, recreational fun session or serious training for those at the top of their game, we have a spot for you. So don't let the flying paddles and splashes put you off giving it a go!

Even the local wildlife wanted a front-row seat to the action—one of our two local pairs of swans and their adorable cygnets stayed close by to observe the game from the bank. 🦢✨

🌊 Smiles, Sunshine, and Splash! 🛶

What a fantastic time we had at last night’s "Paddle and Splash" session! The weather was beautiful, the water was inviting, and our local river environment was absolutely buzzing with life—we even had a lovely swan join us for a swim! 🦢✨

Wednesday nights are all about offering a super safe, highly supportive way to get involved with paddlesport. Last night, our group enjoyed a very gentle, confidence-building introduction to the river's flow (captured beautifully across). From learning how to navigate the gentle currents to just enjoying a bit of relaxation on the water (like the upside-down grin in 🙃), it was smiles and fun learning all around.

🤔 Why Paddle With Us?

Safety First: We are proudly affiliated with PaddleUK, so you can be 100% confident that our coaches are appropriately trained, guided, and safety-checked.

Fun for Everyone: Whether you prefer the teamwork of tandem canoeing or the independence of a kayak, there is a place for everyone here.

Connecting with Nature: There’s nothing quite like exploring our local waterways right from the water level. 🌿

❤️ A Huge Thank You!

A massive shout-out to all of our incredible instructors and volunteers who gave up their evening to keep everyone safe, smiling, and learning. We couldn't run these amazing sessions without you! 🙌

🚣‍♂️ WHAT A DAY! The Big Paddle Clean Up Success! 🌍

A massive thank you to our incredible club members, volunteers, and the wider paddling community who turned out to make this weekend’s river clean-up a resounding success!

Together, we cleared a substantial amount of dangerous litter and pollution from our river, making it safer for wildlife and everyone who enjoys our local blue space. 🦆✨

Here are some of the day's major highlights:

💪 Special Guests: We were delighted to welcome our local MP, Kim Leadbeater, alongside Ben Seal from Paddle UK. They rolled their sleeves up and put in a serious shift on a hot day! Ben was also incredibly impressed by our fantastic club facilities, which were built with the brilliant support of Legal & General Modular Homes.

⛑️ Heavy Lifting: A huge shout-out to the Holme Valley Mountain Rescue Team, who successfully cut down and removed a massive tree that had been creating a significant hazard on the water.

🦢 Nature at its Best: Amidst the hard work, we were treated to the beautiful sight of nesting swans along the river bank—exactly why we do what we do!

💦 Weir Running: Of course, it wasn't all hard work—we couldn't resist wrapping up the day with some fun running the weir!
