Slalom training weekend!
« on: February 24, 2014, 15:22:43 »
Hi folks!

So as part of the Canoeing Ireland Club Champs (more on that in the coming days/weeks) we have the opportunity to partake in a slalom training weekend THIS WEEKEND ( March 1 & 2) in Kilkenny.
It's all going to be run on the Clashganny section off the Barrow where we were on Freshers weekend (here) and heres a rough idea of the weekend:

Day 1: Saturday March 1st
10a.m. Meet at Carpark at Clashganny Weir for a brief introduction to slalom.
11a.m. Slalom Strokes and Skills
1p.m. Hour long Break for Lunch
2p.m. Short Course Race Simulation and Coaching
4p.m. Finish

Day 2: Sunday March 2nd
10a.m. Meet at Carpark at Clashganny Weir for an overview of the plan for the day.
11a.m. Full Course Race Simulation and Coaching
1p.m. Hour long Break for Lunch
2p.m. Full Course Racing
4p.m. Finish

You don't have to pay to attend it as the club has already paid a joining fee, but you will need transport and accommodation if you want to stay in Kilkenny. This is not a club run event, but is open to any of our members to attend!

We need to know by Wednesday afternoon if people want to go as we will be registering ye.

You don't need boats and you don't have to be able to roll, though it would help...

I'm interested, would be driving and could offer some form of accommodation (a word I can't spell at all) probably a box in the back garden
