The University of Queensland Canoe Club
Fun and Fitness
We have organised a swim test at the pool before Polo on Monday night (5/8/24).
UQ Sport requires all members of water based clubs to obtain a swim test certificate. These last two years. Tests can be organised via the UQ Aquatic centre for other times (call them first). Details about swim tests are here.
Consider staying on for canoe polo as it is an introductory night.
Bring a warm top that you can get wet.
A social paddle to the West End Markets. A chance to catch up with members and meet new ones, do some browsing/shopping and take in some food, caffeine, West End vibe, and maybe music. Back around midday / Lunch. Arrive on time!
Spend a day in Moreton Bay paddling around Coochiemudlo Island learning or refreshing the basics of Sea Kayaking including rescue techniques and safety.
Our semester trip to Wivenhoe Dam to try out all the tippy boats in nice clean fresh water. A great social day out to push your limits and improve your skills. Optional barbecue.
A day paddling in Moreton Bay to Green and St. Helena Islands. Possibly around St. Helena depending on conditions and the group.
A multi-disciplinary day building on introductory trips. A chance to practice and learn new skills. Details and registration will be posted in due course.
