Great News….

The PPCA gained the BCU Top Club and Sport England Club Mark Accreditation on 2nd April 2008. We are the first canoe club in Devon to have achieved these awards, which provide a quality kite mark to recognise clubs with high standards of safety, coaching, and management and who have commitment to young people.
Congratulations are due to a lot of hard work put in by the committee over the last few years, pulling together information, fine tuning our policies and activity programmes to ensure that we successfully met all the criteria set down for the awards. But without all our coaches and helpers we would never be able to offer such a wide range of canoeing and kayaking. Well done to all those concerned.

Newsletter

All of these events will be published in the newsletter and in the calendar, so remember to keep checking, and keep paddling.
