Get Reinstated or Ranked
Used to paddle slalom? Reckon you could still kick .....? Why not get reinstated and race again? Or you'd like to have a shot at another class, or you're just a good paddler who's never got into slalom? Here's a form to make applying for reinstatement/ranking easy.

2020 ACM
This year's ACM will be held on Saturday 28 November 2020 via ZOOM.
The committee is working through the practicalities of how a virtual ACM will work and will provide an update, along with the agenda, later in October. In the meantime, any questions, please contact .
Survey
Whether you love connecting with nature, spending time with friends and family or challenging yourself to go the distance, we want to know what inspires you to get out on the water. Fill out our survey and be in with a chance of winning some fantastic paddling prizes!
We want to hear about your paddling, your views and your experience of British Canoeing. By taking part in our survey, you’ll be helping to ensure that British Canoeing can be there for all our members, as well as independent paddlers in England.
The survey will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
Draft Calendar for 2021
Here is the DRAFT CALENDAR FOR 2021>. DON'T make bookings, etc, on the strength of it - everything can change, as we found out this year!
The online draft calendar is HERE and it might be more up to date.

Racing Season to Extend Over Two Years
The committee has decided to have a combined 2020/2021 racing season. No further ranking races will be held in 2020, but this will allow paddlers to carry over points earned in the early part of this year and we expect a full programme of races in 2021. MORE>
About Bibs...
Paddlers will (with the exception of the handful who were promoted) have the same bibs for 2021 as for 2020. PLEASE DO NOT RETURN YOUR BIB THIS YEAR - there is no point, since you would just get the same bib back again next year. We will need a "bib application" next year, which can probably be done on line.
British Canoeing has suspended all events up to 31st July (that is, sprint, marathon etc as well as slalom). MORE>
Training at Tully
Please use this timetable to help you plan your training at Grandtully. This isn't intended to set limits, rather to help you plan training to make it easier to maintain physical distancing whilst training and also maximise the quality of training. Whilst people are travelling less internationally or Nationally, we anticipate that Grandtully will be quite busy at the weekends.
