Congratulations

Wednesday, 23 November 2011 21:32 | Written by Brenda Webster

The Club would like to Congratulate Mike Moffit on his recent (last Saturday) National award presented by
British Canoe Union for his 'Outstanding Contribution to Paddlesport'   link to photo

This was announced at the BCU 75th Anniversary Dinner in Nottingham. Only a few awards were presented for outstanding support in the sport. As many of you know Mike has a long history with paddling from Scouting Stuart's participation in the sport, Mike becoming Coach, then Polo coach to GB Canoe Polo Sqaud coach.  He is still one of the most active Coaches in the Club and Nationally.  A WELL DESERVED AWARD

Congratulations Mike from Friends of Allonby Liverpool Canoe Club

Thursday Session at Crosby from 6.30 p.m. onwards.

Written by Mike Moffitt


Development:       Working Towards Coach Development  and 3 Star Ability onwards.

Dependant on the interest and support this session will run thoughout the winter. As a result of available places the session has now been opened up to accomodate those who wish to pursue their boats skills further to 3 Star/Slalom/Sprint and beyond. It is appreciated that the potential range of tuition on offer is extensive but the sessions will become more defined as the attendance levels and individual interests are ascertained.

Thank You

Winter Pool Sessions

Written by Mike Moffitt

The following pool sessions have been agreed by the General Committee.

Austin Rawlinson Pool Speke
Monday's 7.00 p.m. until 9.p.m. Canoe Polo
First Session due to start Monday 3rd October

Wednesday's 7.00 p.m. until 9.00 p.m. Coaching and General Paddling
First Session due to start Wednesday 28th September

The Meadows Maghull Pool
Monday's 9.00p.m. until 1030 p.m. Coaching and General Paddling
First session due to start Monday 3rd October

As you would expect in the present financial climate pool costs have increased significantly since last winters sessions were our costs were not fully covered by pool fees.  Whilst no decision has been made in terms of increasing each individuals pool fees inevitably we need the support and attendances at each session if we are to minimise the effects of any proposed additional changes.  Pool Fees will no doubt be part of next weeks Committee Meetings Agenda.

Please remember first general session this Wednesday 7.00 p.m. Speke.

Thank You
Mike Moffitt

River Trip Sunday 30th January

Sunday, 09 January 2011 18:47 | Written by Will Ward
Seasonal Greetings All and Best Wishes for the New Year.

There will be a trip on the River Dee from Carrog to Horseshoe Falls (by Chain Bridge Hotel, Llangollen). There is a link so you can see where Carrog is, below (thanks to Ian Morris for telling me that I can use a link)

Bing Map Directions

There are some white water sections on this stretch so all equipment will be required including a helmet. No helmet, no get on. Don’t forget it will be cold so bring thermals (for me).

It is also essential that you have a warm drink and something to eat as this can be quite a long trip, (to be carried in the boat)

All are welcome, even Polo players (spit). The only thing I ask is that you can paddle 100 yards in a straight line.

Meeting at Carrog at 0930 with a view of being on the water at 1000 so please don’t be late.

If you are interested, then let me know soonest so that we can sort out car sharing, I have room for one as I already know of one person going. Please tell me that your going and not rely on somebody else remembering to do it for you. Do not show up unexpected!

See the Upcoming Club Events for more details...
