GBSUP Youth SUP Racing Camp

Youth SUP Racing Training Day

Our Youth Race Training is a brand new programme for 2024 with the aim of providing structured SUP Race Training for young people aged 12-18.

Working in partnership with BSUPA and GBSUP our goal is to create a pathway for talented young athletes to learn, develop and progress within the sport.

With very limited opportunities for Youth SUP Race Training in the UK currently we hope this will become a programme that can be replicated across the UK.

We'll be focusing on paddle skills and techniques, building confidence and resilience and developing competence in SUP racing.

This1 day training camp is specially tailored for young people wanting to develop SUP racing skills with the view to competing in the sport.

Age range: 12-24 yrs

Biodiversity and invasive non-native species policy: As users of Thames Water's Farmoor Reservoir facility we have a responsibility to do our part in taking care of the biosecurity of the site.

If you are bringing your own board to use on Farmoor Reservoir it is your responsibility to ensure you have thoroughly cleaned it before you arrive. We have facilities on site for you to clean your board before and after using the water. Please help us to keep our environment safe by abiding by this policy.

You'll need to bring a pair of trainers or water-sports shoes to wear on your feet, along with your swimwear and a towel.

We provide wetsuits and buoyancy aids.

During the warmer months of summer you can wear shorts & t-shirts.

Please check in at SUP Club HQ.

Once we've got you kitted up and ready to go we'll head over to the water. There will be a mixture of dry land and on water training. Lunch will be provided along with a BBQ in the evening.
