Liverpool Canoe Club is an open club that always welcomes new members of all abilities. If you are new to the sport the best way to start paddling is to sign up for one of our introductory courses (you need to be a full member to open this page) *** This is designed to give you the skills and confidence to take any canoe from our racks during a club night and paddle with fellow club members. (Most will gain their BCU 1 star at the end of an introductory course)
Those with some previous paddling experience could just drop into one of our club sessions. An experienced club member will guide you through your early days with the club. Click here for details of our venues......
