Youth Paddling Program

Outrigger canoe paddling builds teamwork, trust, discipline, and sportsmanship while having loads of fun out on the water! The goal of this  youth program is to get kids on the water having fun, learning basic paddling skills, competing in local races, and learning to enjoy  the water and ocean and to take care of our amazing resource. Come learn about outrigger paddling with other kids!

Junior/Keiki program

Practices will be for our juniors and keikis (ages 8-16). The  intent is to be ready to race the mini iron course at Crystal Pier (May 2) and Iron Championships (June 27). Both races are in San Diego (Mission Bay). If your junior has aged out of this program (for racing) but still wants to paddle on Sundays they are welcome!
