Competitive Youth
Register for the 2024 Paddling Season. Youth Competitive (Race Ready, Competitive, Advanced and High Performance)
Register for our YOUTH COMPETITIVE paddling program: Racing Development U12, Competitive U14, Intermediate, Advanced U16/U18, High Performance and Alumni.
Welcome to the Richmond Hill Canoe Club Competitive Youth paddling program. We have something for all ages and skill levels so please review the programs and find the one best suited to you. All RHCC programs are led by qualified coaches. All indicated ages are directional. If you are unsure about which program to register for, please reach out to Andrew Ivanov, our head coach (head_coach@rhcc.on.ca) or Mary Chambers, our registrar (programs@rhcc.on.ca), and we’ll help you find the right program.
Youth Athletes work with their coach to perform at their best and move up levels when they are ready. Racing Development paddlers take part in intra and some inter-club level competitions. Competitive U14 athletes compete at the inter-club level. Advanced athletes compete at Provincial to National levels. High Performance (HP) athletes compete at the National and sometimes International level.
All full season athletes will have a two week vacation from August 20 to September 3, except for those competing at the Canadian National Championships.
*For youth 11-14 who are just starting out as racing paddlers, please check out our RI (Racing Introductory program). For children under 12, who are new to paddling and prefer a full-day one week program, please check out our Canoe Kids program.
**please note that $10 of every program fee is put toward our ‘Athlete Support Fund’ designed to help athletes with financial constraints stay in the sport.
All RHCC programs require swimming ability: LSS Swimmer 5 or Red Cross Level 6.
Volunteering at regattas for those who participate is a requirement of any member. These hours are not considered volunteer hours but membership requirement. Recruitment for regatta hours will occur throughout the season.

RHCC ALUMNI
Welcome all paddlers - even if it's been awhile! This package is exclusively designed for retired alumni HP and Advanced paddlers of the Richmond Hill Canoe Club.
We are introducing a program that allows you to paddle and compete in singles, tandem of fours. Our training focus will be on team boats, but membership will allow you to train in your own K1/C1 as well.
The package covers the spring and summer of 2024, culminating at the National Championships in Welland, August 20 -24.
It includes racing (team racing fees included in the package) at WODs and Nationals.
Participants can enjoy one or two evening paddling sessions per week. Thursdays, 7:00 - 8:30, are mandatory crew nights, and Tuesdays, 6:30 - 8:30 are optional singles or crew. You are welcome to come in your K1/C1 on your own schedule.
For any questions, please reach out to our Alumni Program Coordinator, Brooklyn Wodehouse (brooklynwodehouse@hotmail.com), our Registrar, Mary Chambers (programs@rhcc.on.ca), or our Head Coach, Andrew Ivanov (head_coach@rhcc.on.ca)
Can't wait to see you on the water!
