Intro To Raft Racing 12-2pm

Fun introduction event to give paddlers the opportunity to try one of the raft racing disciplines. In teams of 4 you will race against another team, battling down the whitewater course and around 2 gates in a race to the finish. You will race multiple teams in a box league, with the winners battling it out in a final race. 

No rafting experience is necessary, however some paddling experience is required. You can enter either as a team of 4, or as an individual and you will be matched up with other paddlers. All teams will be accompanied by an experienced raft racer to enable you to get the most out of the event. 

All paddlers must be 14+

So get yourself and your friends together and come give raft racing a go!
