Sunday 10:30am

We are now operating on our Winter timetable and Harefield Sunday sessions will continue through the Winter months at 10:30am. These sessions are open to beginners and experienced paddlers.

The slalom team has had a fantastic year and we want to make 2023 even better, which means we need all our regular paddlers to keep training through the Winter, so we can be ready for the start of the next season. We are also looking for new people to join us, so we can have even more paddlers racing next year.

For more information call 07951 770241 or email: slalom@thesharks.org.uk. To join our WhatsApp group please send us your details and we will add you.

Directions

We meet at Troy Lake, the home of Rickmansworth Sailing Club, Troy Lake, WD3 9YB. The site is adjacent to the River Clone and Grand Union Canal, to access the Club by car; approach from A412, turning between Denham and West Hyde, signposted for Rickmansworth Sailing Club. Turn Left at the small MOT garage and, once passed the Marble and Granite Centre, drive along the track for 500m to the sailing club.

Alternatively you can walk down from the Coy Carp along the tow path and turn right just after you cross the bridge over the Troy Cut., follow the footpath till you get to the track and the Saining Club is on your left.

From the sailing club, we paddle along the canal to our slalom site opposite the Coy Carp pub.  There is whitewater from sluices entering the canal in a wide weir pool, with permanent slalom gates for training.

Our slalom sessions are led by our specialist Slalom Coach, Rick Moore. We have built up a great team of paddlers with a wide age range and different abilities. We teach beginners and are always ready for new members to join. We can provide you with all the kit you need, so now is the time to give it ago and have some fun.

As well as paddling at Harefield, we travel to events across the Country,
