Junior River Days

Erne Paddlers is going to join in with CANI Junior River Days programme, overseen by Rodger Hamilton, CANI's Clubs Officer and L5 coach.


It is a programme where a few clubs will join forces for training and mentoring over 5 sessions and in between these specific sessions (one per month) the individual clubs will advance their kids in skills through practice in the lough  / pool time / river time perhaps on a weekly basis.

 

The schedule will involve an initial river based training day for coaches where Rodger shows us current best practise for working with kids.

Then on 6 subsequant days ( one per month ) Roger will mentor our river leaders and kids as we continue to introduce river skills to them. 

On these specific river days - we will team up with another club and deliver the programme.  The kids keep their skills up on a weekly basis at club sessions, including time in the pool.
