🚣‍♂️ What a day for our club at the Athy River Race! 🔥

On the 26th of April, we had a small but mighty crew head down to Athy to take on the river—Kris and Tadhg flying the flag for the adults, alongside our juveniles Cillian and Riley.

The racing was fast, the conditions kept things interesting, and the energy on the water was top class all day 💪

Huge performances from the adults, with Kris and Tadhg taking 1st and 2nd in the sea kayak devision 🥇🥈—a brilliant result and a great showing for the club!

Massive shoutout to Cillian and Riley who brought home our first ever juvenile medals 🏅🏅—an unreal achievement and only the beginning for these two!

Brilliant racing, great experience, and plenty to build on—onwards and upwards from here 🚀

Join us this Easter for a fun-filled girls-only kayaking camp in Monasterevin!

Designed for girls aged 8–17, this camp combines kayaking, games, safety awareness, biodiversity, and plenty of fun — all led by qualified, Garda-vetted instructors.

This initiative is part of our commitment to increasing female participation in kayaking. By creating a supportive and inclusive environment, we aim to help participants build confidence, develop skills, and feel comfortable progressing in the sport.

While running alongside our mixed camp, this programme is delivered as a separate group, allowing girls to learn and grow in an encouraging and empowering space.

Over the course of the camp, participants will:
• Build core kayaking skills and confidence on the water
• Learn essential safety skills and risk awareness
• Develop an understanding of water conditions and safe practices
• Connect with nature and explore local biodiversity
• Learn about pollution and how to protect our waterways
