Next year the BCU are making major changes to the star awards and the coaching qualifications. I have posted some of the initial details on the training forum and more details can be found on the BCU website. Changes are dues to start taking effect from about March 2007.

Training Thames Paddle

2006-06-22T17:43:00Z

Mark and I are in the process of organising a number of beginners Thames River paddles. These are for people in our regular training groups who are either working towards 2 star or who passed their 2 star award, but have not yet completed the 2 trips reqiured for this award.

Places are strictly limited.

The first trip is on 11th July and there are only a few places left. There will be several other trips happening through July and August. If you are interested let me know and I can book you a place as soon as I have the definite dates fixed.

Priority will be given to people who need the trips to complete an award they are working towards.

This blog is to let you know about any up and coming beginner Thames trips, assessments, pool sessions or other special events for paddlers in our training groups. Keep an eye open for the next Thames trips in July!

You can now download a copy of our training log from the training page. This is a great way of keeping a record of your trips and qualifications and contains details of all the strokes and theory questions for each star award up to 3 star.

You will also have noticed the new stars beside your name when you make a posting. If you notice that you stars are wrong, please let me know so I can keep my records up to date. Thanks Alison
