About our club...

UPSU Canoe and Kayak Club has been running since 2005 and we're not slowing down. We're an expanding, multidiscipline club so whether you're into whitewater, sea kayaking, surfing, or playboating, we've got the people who are into it and upcoming trips to match.

We run regular pool training sessions, all free and unlimited, with experienced coaches who actually know what they're doing. Full kit is provided for all of our members, so there are no barriers to getting stuck in. There's also the chance to gain recognised paddling qualifications along the way for those interested.

We also run some of the cheapest trips of any university water sports club, so getting on the water won't break your student budget.

Currently our full price membership is £45 and our new social membership is £10.

Our Sessions

A typical baseline week in the club looks like this:

This is the usual basic schedule we will run. Socials will always be a mix of sober and pub socials throughout term time, mixed in with some fundraising and charity activities too!

Some of the trips we run include:

• White water - with some of the best rivers in England right on our doorstep
• Overnight trips (including the renowned freshers trip and returning members trip)
• Flat water trips / expeditions
• Sea and surf kayaking trips - we are also ideally located between the gorgeous Devon and Cornwall coastlines
• Potential race kayaking and canoe polo tasters
• Charity kayaks (potentially even a 24 hour kayak!)
