Location
We train at the Olympic Basin on Ile Notre-Dame. Directions.

Some practices will be at alternate locations when basin access is closed due to events such as the F1 race. You will notified through e-mail and on the announcements on the main page.

Indoor Training Schedule
During the off-season we train on Mondays at the olympic basin. 6pm in the weight room (optional) and 7pm in the paddling pool.
Warm-ups begin promptly at 6:50pm.

Important! - use the web attendance tracker to notify us of your expected attendance for upcoming practices.

Individual Fitness
See our coach Fred's training program. Use it as a reference, i.e. don't stop the activities you enjoy but make sure you're getting good coverage of paddling relevant exercises.

We will conduct occasional fitness tests. There is no minimum pass criterion. It's to give you motivation to train and to give Fred an idea of your fitness. Your paddling priority in races is based on your attendance, paddling skill, and fitness.

Additional paddling and training info is available at paddlesup.ca. See the doctor's orders section about rotator cuff and other common injuries.
