CLOSED for the season! Thank you for a great year!

Adult: Outrigger

Outrigger Program 2023

Registration opens April 1st, 2023

All Outrigger members pay a membership fee and an additional fee for access to crew boats (OC6 and V12) or access to crew boats and small boats (V1, OC1, OC2). Paddlers must have previous paddling experience to use small boats. We will run clinics for paddlers with big boat experience that want to start using small boats.

We will continue to use the OC booking app to sign up for all big boat sessions and small boat reservations. We will offer coach lead sessions during the week (Schedule TBC). A training program will be provided for paddlers to follow.

Email Lynda: calgarycanoeclubinfo@gmail.com if you have big boat experience and want to start using small boats prior to registering for access to small boats.

For a very thorough overview of Outrigger you can review the 'Outrigger Manual'. 

Intro to Outrigger sessions in 2023
New paddlers are welcome to try outrigger paddling with our 'Intro to OC' sessions. Paddlers have the opportunity to attend any two sessions (Wednesday evening or Saturday morning) in a big boat with some experienced paddlers. If you join the OC program after your intro sessions we will put these fees towards your big boat fee. Sessions are held through the season Wednesdays 6:30pm – 8:00 pm and Saturdays 8:30am-10:00am starting mid May. Some dates NA due to events, etc. Weather permitting. 
Please email Lynda to set your dates.

Program fees:
Intro to OC (2 sessions): $40
OC Crew boats access: $130
OC Crew & Small Boat access: $190
Private boat storage (by permission only): $125 year

Membership
Club Membership is required to participate in Outrigger Programs. There are individual and family memberships available. Membership and Outrigger options are at the bottom of the page. 

Personal Boat Storage
All private boat owners MUST have permission to store their boat at the Club and be members. Click on the Boat Storage icon to add to your cart.

Race Participation
Once you have joined the program we will offer all paddlers the opportunity to participate at a few CORA races we have identified, in addition to all Club organized trials and FUN races. Once we have the sign up we will do our best to accommodate all paddlers in crews. This is not always possible so time trials may be organized for crew selection. Crew selection will vary on the event. High performance events such as Nationals will focus on gender and age division and /or wishes of the paddlers participating. 

The basic principal is to allow all paddlers an opportunity to participate while balancing the wishes of those that would like to create a set crew. 

CORA Membership
All paddlers participating in any CORA sanctioned event, including the Team Canada Sprint Trials, must purchase a CORA membership; Become a Member - Canadian Outrigger Racing Association (CORA)
