NBCC’s Fall Training is a great way for all paddlers to improve paddling technique, strength, and fitness. Two options are available: Development for athletes of any age who are involved in other sports or are new to paddling and cannot commit to daily workouts; and High Performance for U14 and up athletes who are determined to compete at the Provincial, National and ultimately, International level.

Development athletes will train 2 to 3 times per week on weekday evenings after school and occasionally on Saturday mornings. Practices will primarily be on-water but will include dryland aerobic and strength training each week.

High Performance athletes will train 4 to 8 times per week before and after school on weekdays and on Saturday mornings as part of their year-round regimen. The number of weekly practices will depend on the age, physical/mental development and goals of each athlete and discussion with the NBCC Head Coach. Practices will consist of on-water and dryland workouts focusing on higher volume, aerobic fitness, technique refinement and strength training.
