Coming soon - Oughtibridge Slalom Weekend

On April 25/26th we are running the first of our two annual Slalom race weekends. These are exciting and fun events, even if you don't paddle the course at Oughtibridge gives a great opportunity to watch the action while having coffee or bacon sandwich from the catering tent.

If you've not been before, or Slalom hasn't been your thing before. Our weekends have two Division 3 and 4 class races, one on each day and include multiple categories such as kayak, canoe and single or double. In April we are also including Wildwater racing for anyone who wants to give it a try.

This last week we have made a huge upgrade to our river site. A new set of steps has been installed, curtesy of funding provided by Paddle UK and local company Gripple Ltd. Here's some photos from Sunday and their first use by the club.

The work started on Monday with volunteers from Gripple and the Club removing the old steps and preparing the site for the install. The installation was carried out by Diomet (a local firm) and desite the wet weather this week we have managed to complete the work.

We couldn't have achieved this without the funding partners and the wonderful volunteers from Gripple. They were optimistic and enthusiastic despite the daunting, wet and muddy task. Thanks to everyone involved.
