Kids as young as 8 years of age are welcome to paddle, with race divisions including; Minnows (age 8-10 years in enclosed waters only), 12-and-under, 14-and-under, 16-and-under,19-and-under and young guns.
Currently 18 of our junior members are training hard to secure a spot to represent Australia next year in the Vaa World Sprints which is being held in Tahiti, 2018. This is a great oppotunity for our juniors to try and strive for something at such a high level and at such a young age.
Our juniors have a great bond with each other on and off the water, and it shows when it comes to race day in seeing the determination on their faces including our little minnows who are only 8-9 years old.
If this sounds like something that you or your child are interested in, please feel free to contact us and have 3 free sessions.
