A Different Way to Get Active 🛶

Not every young person feels at home in traditional team sports, and that’s completely okay. Paddlesport offers a different way to get active: outdoors, relaxed, supportive and some adventure.

Our Youth Start and Discover Programme in partnership with local clubs and Delivery Partners is for young people aged 10-17 who want to try something new, build confidence and enjoy some time outdoors and on the water.

No previous experience needed, all equipment provided and low cost, just £24 for four sessions.
