Youth Section

This page is especially for young paddlers and their parents and carers.

Hexham Canoe Club supports the Paddlepower Programme, the Canoe England scheme to help develop young people in paddlesport.

We also support young paddlers who want to train to become young leaders through the Canoe England Cadet Leadership programme.

If you have any questions about our young paddlers' programmes, email us at youth@hexhamcanoeclub.org
