Are you the owner of Ribble Canoe Club?
Ribble Canoe Club is a vibrant and inclusive paddlesport club located in Preston, New Zealand. As a registered and affiliated British Canoeing club, Ribble Canoe Club offers a range of paddling opportunities for adults and children of all abilities. Nestled along the scenic Lancaster Canal, the club provides the perfect setting for paddlers to explore and enjoy the wonderful sport of canoeing and kayaking.
At Ribble Canoe Club, we are dedicated to promoting non-competitive recreational paddling. Our extensive fleet of kayaks, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards enables our members to experience the beauty of Britain's waterways at their own pace. Whether you're interested in white water kayaking, sea kayaking, inland touring, canoeing, or stand up paddleboarding, we have the equipment and expertise to support your interests.
We believe in providing our members with ample opportunities for growth and development in the sport. Through our partnership with British Canoeing, we offer an array of paddle awards that allow our members to progress and expand their skills. Additionally, our club organises coach-led beginner and development trips, providing a supportive and adventurous environment to take on new challenges.
Joining Ribble Canoe Club is a seamless and inclusive process. We welcome paddlers of all ability levels, and to ensure accessibility for everyone, we offer introductory 'Paddle Start' sessions. These sessions are designed to provide newcomers with the basic skills and knowledge needed to begin their paddling journey. Our annual memberships are affordable, and we provide reasonably priced British Canoeing paddle awards, as well as low-cost pool sessions.
As a member of Ribble Canoe Club, you gain access to our exclusive Member Forum. This online platform allows you to sign up for official club trips, events, and pool sessions. It also serves as a tool for members to organise unofficial peer-paddling outings, fostering a strong sense of community and camaraderie within the club.
Safety and welfare are of utmost importance at Ribble Canoe Club. We are currently reviewing and updating our Club Welfare & Safeguarding pages to ensure the well-being of our members. If you have any concerns, our welfare officer and British Canoeing are readily available to address them.
