Grant has had a stunning start to the 2015 slalom season at Matlock, Shepperton and now Tynedale.

The Tynedale race was organised by Hexham Canoe Club.

The Sharks now want and need new paddlers to join the club and get involved in slalom canoeing. We provide all the equipment, travel to some fantastic places and have lots of fun. We have permanent slalom gates at Harefield, which has been used by many GB international paddlers to train on. we also hold regular pool sessions and train at a number of locations.
