Welcome to Solihull Canoe Club
Canoeing is a popular and fast growing sport. It is a great way to get fit and explore the countryside of Britain.
Here at Solihull Canoe Club we take part in both recreational and
competitive kayaking & canoeing. Even if you are a complete
beginner, you are most welcome to come along for a try out under the
guidance of qualified British Canoeing (BC) coaches.
We
are based at Catherine-de-Barnes on the Grand Union Canal near Solihull and Birmingham in the
West Midlands. For a map and details of how to get to the club; click on

The
club is a registered charity with volunteer committee members and
coaches, for more information on who we are; our experience and qualifications; click on

The
club meets every Saturday with a performance group in the morning and a
recreational group in the afternoon. If you are a novice or regular canoeist and would like
to come along please contact us - see either
About Us or, if that does not meet your needs, please phone or email us.
Coronavirus - Please note that at present, due to coronavirus restrictions, we may not be able to run taster sessions for complete beginners. However, please still contact us if you are interested.
