Cardington Slalom June ’25

Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th

A weekend of slalom paddling at Cardington, just an hour away from Harefield, this Division 2, 3 and 4 event is suitable for all paddlers. So book the weekend off and we can have a Club weekend of fun and paddling. There is camping on site.

Let us have a great weekend at Cardington, Bedfordshire, MK44 3JZ. Last year we had 15 Sharks racing at Cardington, let’s see if we can beat that number. It is a Division 2 and Division 3 ranking event as well as a Division 4 event, so all or our ranked slalomist are eligible to enter as are all of our Division 4 (entry level padders).

There is camping on site, so we could make it a real great fun weekend, with a social aspect as well as a competitive one. There are two events, one on Saturday and one on Sunday, you can enter either of both. To enter click here.

Cardington is about 50 miles from Harefield and should take about an hour to drive, so there are a number of options, you can go either Friday evening and camp the weekend, travel Saturday and just camp one night, or you can travel up each day, or just do one of the two days, the options are yours. Obviously the more time we spend there, the more fun we have.
