SUMMARY:Mon 13 Apr 2026 Summer Training - Social Paddle\, Polo Skills & Personal Coaching
DESCRIPTION:For our first Monday evening outdoor foray on the river at Brecon Promenade after Easter\, on 13 April\, we intend to offer the following (tickets now available in the usual way via the website event listing): \n\n\n\n\n‘social paddling’  – come along and join us for a gentle paddle\, probably to the rapids and back;\n\n\n\nskills training for our polo squad (if enough of them want to come) – boat handling\, fitness and ball skills (and maybe some game-play!); and\n\n\n\npersonal coaching (limited numbers\, depending on coach availability\, will run alongside the social paddle) – if you’re interested in this\, please book a ‘social paddle’ ticket and e-mail Steve to express interest in a coaching session!\n\n\n\n\nDetails for subsequent weeks to follow in due course… \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue\n\n\n\n\nBrecon Promenade – meet by the Club’s store adjacent to the toilet block in the‘upper’ car park (https://what3words.com/tigers.loitering.bandage) – NOT in the car park next to the river / boathouse (although some of us might end up operating from there).\n\n\n\n\nTimes\n\n\n\n\nMeet at 6.30pm\, ready in your paddling clothes. We want to have everyone kitted-up and getting on the water by 7pm\, so late arrival has quite a disruptive effect!\n\n\n\nWe’ll aim to be getting off the water around 8.30pm\, before it gets dark.\n\n\n\nParents or other adults must be available at the start and end of the session to help under-18s with kit and to carry boats; and throughout the session in case they need to get off the water early.\n\n\n\n\nFacilities\n\n\n\n\nThere are no indoor changing facilities on site\, so it’s a case of changing in the car park. Disabled (and maybe other) toilet/s should be open but cost 20p to get in.\n\n\n\n\nCost\n\n\n\n\nNo cost if you bring your own boat & kit (although donations welcomed to help us cover costs).\n\n\n\n£5 to hire club kayak & kit (canoes & SUPs may also be available for some sessions).\n\n\n\nAll existing Club members must also have up-to-date membership of both the Club and Paddle Cymru and have signed-up to our Club Code of Conduct – we’ll send separate reminders for those of you who need these! Any new members will need to join formally after their first three sessions.\n\n\n\n\nEquipment and Clothing\n\n\n\n\nDon’t forget a towel and complete change of clothes for the end of the session\, in case you do fall in!!\n\n\n\nWe’ll provide boats\, paddles\, buoyancy aids\, helmets and spray-decks for those who need them – but if you have your own\, please bring them along\n\n\n\nAlthough deliberate immersion isn’t always part of the plan (and even when it is\, it’s usually towards the end of the session) there’s always a chance of accidental capsize\, so kit should take account of this (and the general weather conditions).\n\n\n\nAt the very least\, wear clothing layers of the type you might wear to go walking – ideally synthetic materials that stay warm and don’t get too heavy when wet. Most people wear swimwear underneath. We can provide paddling jackets if you don’t have your own (to keep off the rain and wind\, rather than keep you dry if you capsize!).\n\n\n\nFootwear that you don’t mind getting wet\, not too large (chunky trainers don’t fit well in kayaks; neoprene wet-shoes are ideal; sandals or crocs no good as they fall off!).\n\n\n\nIf you want to be assured of staying warmer if you fall in\, a wetsuit is the next step. Ones made specifically for paddling are called Long Johns (or Long Janes) and don’t have sleeves\, for maximum mobility (worn with e.g. rash vest beneath and/or fleece above). But a standard surfing-type ‘full’ wetsuit is also fine as a starter. Again\, we do have a very limited number of wetsuits\, which you’re welcome to check-out on the first evening in case we have one that fits you…
