Army Canoeing

We will be there, will you?!

Braving the elements, and testing ourselves, laughing at our mishaps and being a team, come join us!

This weekend competed in the Interservices Canoe Polo Championships at HMS Temeraire, Portsmouth against the RAF and the RN.
Great news as after 15 long years the Army team won the Polo championships!!!

The team couldn’t have done it without new boats and equipment provided by the Army Sport Control Board (ASCB).

The team consists of Regulars and Reserves, male and female paddlers, all of whom attributed to the win.

Pic 4 - it doesn’t hurt that after a protracted period, the qualified Judges/Officials got their heads into the rule book and brushed up.
