SUMMARY:Sat 4-Sun 5 Jun 2022 British Canoeing Core Coach Training
DESCRIPTION:This is an ‘external’ course being run by Steve Rayner\, with a possible hefty subsidy for Club Members! \n\n\n\nHave you ever thought about becoming a Paddlesport Coach? This 2-day course (suitable for teens and above) is a good way to start!! Contact Steve to discuss suitability and eligibility for subsidies! \n\n\n\nThe British Canoeing Coach Award is an entry point qualification which offers discipline-specific pathways across all disciplines. The Award is designed for people whose core function is to coach paddlers who want to gain/improve paddlesport skills within the discipline chosen. This will include coaching beginners new to the sport\, or paddlers looking to develop their skills in the given discipline or environment. \n\n\n\nThe Coach Award content is delivered through 2-day Core Coach Training and 2-day Discipline Specific Training (22 disciplines currently available\, including Sheltered Water Kayak and/or Canoe; White Water Kayak; White Water Canoe; and Open Water Canoe). \n\n\n\nThe two-day Core Coach Training course introduces the shared coaching content that is relevant to all coaches at this level\, exploring different approaches to coaching\, understanding and enabling learning; and some core coaching skills. It is not specific to any one discipline and will make use of a variety of craft to explore different approaches to coaching and introduce some core coaching skills. The course will be a blend of classroom and water-based activity; and you will also be supported a personal coaching development plan to enable you to take your learning into practice after the course. \n\n\n\nSubsequent Discipline Specific Training will then focus on how to coach discipline-specific technical and tactical skills\, helping coaches to plan and deliver safe\, enjoyable\, progressive coaching sessions and explore specifics to help coach typical athletes/learners relevant to the discipline. \n\n\n\nCandidates need to have: \n\n\n\nFull ‘on the water’ membership of Canoe Wales / British Canoeing (etc.); andA base level of knowledge about the discipline(s) you wish to coach.

SUMMARY:Mon 6 Jun Summer Training
DESCRIPTION:***NB no session on Mon 30 May (half-term)*** \n\n\n\nThis will be the first week of our next block of weekly evening training\, which will continue throughout the summer. \n\n\n\nWe’ll also be doing some litter-picking this evening as part of The Big Paddle Cleanup! \n\n\n\nWe can now confirm that we’ll have the following 3 groups for this block of 4 sessions (6\, 13\, 20\, 27 Jun) AND we’d love you all to BRING A FRIEND for one or more sessions (no charge for their first 2 sessions\, but we do need to know they’re coming in advance). Please RSVP below if you’d like to attend all 4 sessions; or let us know if you or a friend would like to come just for individual sessions. \n\n\n\nBeginners (if you bring some friends who fit this category!)Adult improvers\, with the option of working towards the British Canoeing Paddle Discover and Paddle Explore AwardsJunior improvers\, working towards the British Canoeing Paddle Explore AwardTeen / adult performers\, fitness and skills with a bit of polo training and some safety skills and introductions to coaching\n\n\n\nVenue\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\nTimes\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 8.15-8.30am\, 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\nFacilities\n\n\n\nThere are no indoor changing facilities on site\, so it’s a case of changing in the car park. Toilets may be open\, but possibly only until 7pm – and they cost 20p to get in. \n\n\n\nCost\n\n\n\n£8 per session\, or £24 for 4 block-booked sessions (6\, 13\, 20\, 27 Jun – no refunds for missed sessions) – we’ll collect this by Direct Debit through our membership system. \n\n\n\nAll existing Club members must also have up-to-date membership of both the Club and Canoe Wales – we’ll send separate reminders for those of you who need these! Any new members will need to register with us but don’t need to join formally for this first block of sessions. \n\n\n\nEquipment and Clothing\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 alongAlthough 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).At 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. And a waterproof jacket (to keep off the rain and mind\, rather than keep you dry if you capsize!) – we do have a limited number of canoeing cagoules\, but not enough of the right sizes for everyone.Footwear 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!).If 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…Don’t forget a towel and complete change of clothes for the end of the session\, in case you do fall in!!We’ll be sure to talk about kit on the first couple of sessions so you can get an idea of what’s out there before you commit to spending £££\, but if you do want some ideas…Good local(ish) stores to look at are Up and Under and Canoe and Kayak Store – both will offer discounts for club members on request…
