every thrusday afternoon outrigger australia have the juniors out at the ck and ck mouth in 4 canoes.

it's just a fanastic sight to see so many kids paddling. i used to be able to paddle faster on my sup- not any more.

they have been to two races and won most of them on the second outing.

peter was telling me they now go to elephant rock and back a couple of times and they love being out there in the ocean.

4 of them can steer and one girl is 12 years old.

such a great start to hopefully a lifetime of paddling
cheers

The groms train Monday Arvo, Saturday Arvo as well as Thursday.

They have progressed from being slow and having an adult steer them to being fast, winning races and steering themselves. This is one single season!

Travis, Danny etc etc all started as Junior outrigger paddlers. I am looking forward to watching the juniors race at Nationals this weekend.

It's only my first season at this particular club but the club is well and truly back in action. Juniors, womens, mens. There are 3 open mens teams in the National title race on Saturday alone as well as the Masters and Senior Masters. 17 teams entered in total.......
