The aim is for all paddlers to improve performance and have fun. Everyone involved in the Club should abide by the Club Rules and Policies.

Sit up tall, head up - Sit upright, or with slight lean forward. Head up, and look forward rather than down at the water. 2. No splash at catch - Clean entry of paddle into the water. Place the paddle in, then pull on it = 2 separate movements. 3. Top arm high throughout stroke - Keep top arm at shoulder level all the time the paddle is in the water on the other side. Drive hand towards the horizon, not down towards knees. 4. Top arm towards nose of boat, not across - Drive the top arm forward, not across in front of your face. 5. Start the Paddle close to the boat from the catch to past your knee - As you rotate it will want to slip out to the side – remember you’re trying to drive the boat forward through the water. 6. Lift the Paddle out as your hand reaches your hip . Your Hand should never be behind the line of your body. 7. Pause at the end of the stroke - Think of one stroke at a time and let the boat glide in between strokes. At the end of the stroke both paddles are out of the water, ready for the next stroke. One arm fully extended ready to place the paddle, and the other arm is bent at your elbow, with hand at shoulder/ear height, a little away from the body. Practice pausing for 2 seconds between strokes. 8. Rotation - Push with the leg on the side you are taking the stroke on. Try to swivel on your seat. Rotate hips and shoulders around to increase reach and involve back and leg muscles in the action. 9. Start the stroke with the leg push - Push with your foot on the footrest before you start to pull on the paddle. This will stabilise the boat and stop the boat from leaning away from the stroke. It will mean that the power generated from the stroke will be transmitted into driving the boat forward. 10. Keep top arm back - Do not straighten your top arm too quickly. Aim to hold it back, and drive the stroke from the rotation of hips and shoulders, which should have been initiated from the leg drive. Top arm is your brace or pivot point, which is fixed for you to pull against. This involves activating chest muscles, like doing a press-up. www.southamptoncc.co.uk 6 WARM UP AND RECOVERY What is a warm up all about? You need to prepare your body for any energetic activity before you start the actual event or training. Your body will work much more efficiently, you will enjoy paddling, running swimming or whatever more and do it better You will be less likely to be injured The more intense the activity the more thoroughly you need to warm up. o Run gently o Skip o Do right arm and then left arm swings as you are running Get in your boat Fidget around holding onto landing stage and get the feel of the water Paddle along for a few minutes Paddle in circles each way Paddle in figure 8’s Paddle along in straight line leaning the boat one way Recovery – Warm Down After every session, whatever you do, you need to warm down to help your body recover quickly. Spend at least 5-10 minutes paddling fairly slowly as your heart slows down Do some stretches on the land Drink and eat some carbohydrate – cereal bar, banana, sandwich etc within 30 minutes of finishing - DONT FORGET TO WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST THOUGH www.southamptoncc.co.uk 7 MENTAL SKILLS FOR RACING My goal today is to win this race. I can see the finish. It would be good to beat ……...….. today. OK - let’s try and get S T A R T a really good start at the beginning of the race I must try to concentrate on my racing technique and not worry about other paddlers Although I have made some mistakes I must stay focused on the race YES - I can see the How could my race have gone finish line. I’m sure if I better? try my hardest I will How did I feel beating …….? beat …….. to the finish What will my goal be for my next race? F I N I S H www.southamptoncc.co.uk 8 SMART FOOD A good diet is made up of: 60% 15% 5% CARBOHYDRATES PROTEIN FATS Rice Butter Cereals Cream Pasta Meat Cheese Bread Poultry Eggs Potatoes Eggs Peanut butter Oven chips Yoghurt Crisps Sugary drinks Burgers Yoghurts Custard Carbohydrates are the most important fuel for working muscles and so increasing the amount you eat, you will keep your store of instant energy topped up What should paddlers eat before paddling? Never paddle when hungry.

March 2019 Here's a round-up of what's happening here at B3C... View from the chair This from James... Spring seems to be sneaking up on us. For those who’ve been down to the canal you’ll have started to see bulbs flowering and the trees starting to bud up. With the nights getting longer as well we head towards our 40th summer season – which is really exciting. We’ll be getting ready for this over the next month, with a barn tidy, new boats arriving and older boats being checked over. For the racers, the season is in full swing and we are halfway through both the Waterside and Thameside series’ – more on that from Tina. We’ve also agreed our first set of courses for the year. With the changes to the British Canoeing qualifications these are a little different – more details on the courses to follow. We’ll also be running taster sessions on the first Saturday of every month, to help more people discover what we love about paddling. Finally, as this is our 40th year we are organising lots of events to bring the club together and celebrate – see 'Put this on your Calendar' below. See you on the water soon!

  • Proposal for a National Canoe Time Trial Series
    UK Canoeing Proposal for a National Canoe Time Trial series VERSION: 2.1 Dated: 4th March 2015 Prepared by: Nick Adnitt 6 Dove Close Andover Hampshire SP10 5PB Email: [email protected] Mobile: +44 (0)7824 327725 Proposal for a National Canoe Time Trial series 1. Executive Summary This document proposes some ideas to create a National Canoe Time Trial Series for Great Britain. The main objective is establish a national standard format for time trials, to form a competitive race series for high kneeling canoes, and also embrace the sit&switch style of paddlers. The series will run throughout the summer and co-exist, but remain entirely separate from the existing Hasler race calendar. The main ideas and recommendations described in this document are: 1. To outline a proposal for a standard race format for a canoe time trial. 2. For the proposal to be reviewed by the British Canoe Union (BCU) Marathon Racing Committee (MRC) for advice and recommendations. 3. That the BCU MRC should sanction a trial event format for the 2015 calendar year. 4. The proposal should be circulated to canoe clubs for wider consultation, comments and feedback. 5. That a central organising committee be formed of representatives from the canoeing fraternity, to agree a time trial race format, regulations and event organisation. 6. For a number of clubs who register interest, to be invited to test the concept during 2015, in conjunction with their scheduled Hasler marathon event. 7. That a review be conducted at the end of 2015. This document is not prescriptive, but simply sets out some ideas for consideration and refinement by a central organising committee.

Edition 2. 1998 WELCOME TO THE RIVER THAMES The Environment Agency acts as the Guardian of the Environment, protecting and improving it for future generations by regulation and direct action. The Agency's Thames Region, which embraces the Navigation and Recreation Service provided by the former National Rivers Authority, encourages the pursuit of a variety of recreational activities along the 136 miles of the freshwater River Thames for which it is the managing authority. It achieves this through the efforts of lock staff and Navigation Inspectors throughout the length of the non-tidal river. The Thames is an attraction for numerous activities: anglers, boating enthusiasts, canoeists, dinghy sailors and yachtsmen, holidaymakers in hired craft, naturalists, oarsmen, swimmers and sub-aqua divers and walkers. With so many interests competing for space, is the river large enough to accommodate them all without conflict and risk to personal safety? The answer is yes - provided that all river users are safety conscious and practise good river manners. One of the Agency's jobs is to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity to enjoy their activity, without impairing the enjoyment of others.
