We hope that again the upcoming European Championship will become for many young participants a launching pad on the way to future medals of the Olympic Games 2024- 2028.
Over the past 10 years, the Krylatskoye Regatta Course has changed a lot: a major reconstruction of the sports complex has been carried out: new modern finish and start towers have been built, water passages have been laid for a convenient approach to the start at 500m and 1000m connecting the racing and training channels, a new electronic indicator panel has been installed , a television monorail was laid at the last 200 finishing meters of the distance, the old building of the boathouses was renovated and a new one was built. We are very grateful to the Government of Moscow for the rendered help and support in development of our sport.
On the Krylatskoye Regatta Course such competitions were held as: • 1980 - XXII Olympic Games • 2009 - ICF Junior & U23 Canoe Sprint World Championships • 2010 - ECA Junior & U23 Canoe Sprint European Championship • 2012 - ICF Canoe Sprint World Cup • 2014 -ICF Canoe Sprint & Paracanoe World Championships • 2016 - ECA Canoe Sprint & Paracanoe European Championships • 2016 - ICF Dragon Boat World Championships • 2019 - ECA Dragon Boat European Championships
