 Rules for Pool Sessions

For safety reasons, the number of boats/paddlers in the pool is limited to 25 (20 in the large pool and 5 in the small pool).

We have started a "waiting list" in order to reduce congestion and help those who wish to paddle on a regular basis in the first session. If you wish to join the club please visit us on a Tuesday night by all means, but don`t expect to be able to paddle that session! It is best if you contact us first, either by leaving a message at the pool on 01946 696049 or by emailing us. (See contact page).

 Please see the pool information page for more details of the pool arrangements for the early session.
