Friday Night Pool Sessions
We have been in communication with Teignbridge Canoe Club, who are able to offer us a few spaces each week for Pool sessions at Dawlish Leisure Centre, on Friday nights. You can take your own very clean kit, (sea or short Kayak), Buoyancy aid and helmet must be worn. Coaching is now being offered, you will get the full hour in the pool.
The pool is amazing and the club members are all very friendly. Our members are welcome to book places through the following link. Please read the instruction carefully, as its fully automated and you will be dealing directly with another club. In saying that, if you do have any questions, I'm very happy to answer as best I can.

I'd like to go. Dates I can do are 8, 15, 22 December although I'd want a max of 2 evenings. I can help others with boat transport.
Would either or both be interested in joining me this Friday to give it a go and see if it works for us?
I cant make this Friday or next.
yes interested. Let me know which club boat i should bring if you want me to use something specific.
Paul, Shelley.. I'll book for the 3 of us this Friday and we can scope it out.. Shall we take 1 MV Scorpio and one short dagger max and a boat for Paul?
8-9.20pm I believe they will let us in at 7.30 to setup.. are you going to the club tonight.. if so we can chat then..
this sounds good not around on the 15th but any other friday i am free
Paul and me went yesterday evening, to meet up with Teignbridge club and have a few little rolls. It went very well, the pool is amazing and the club members are all very decent people. Our members are welcome to book places through a form I will post shortly. Some weeks they maybe full, so we will have to book and try individually week by week.
Please see new above
I’d like to do the 8th and 15th. I’ll make enquiries on the Teignmouth club website. I can help with transport if anyone needs it.
Hi Jason, amazing.. I think they're set up for bookings on a week by week basis, but will check
I know some spaces available this week.

I’d like to go this Friday. I’ll try booking again as something went wrong last time.
Hi Jason, how did the booking for tonight go? would you like a companion??
The canoe session was really helpful and the pool is a great size. Loads of space for several boats. The instructor had a method of teaching the roll which has amazing results. Well worth going. I can’t do this coming Friday but I’ll be back on the 22nd. Anyone who wants to join let me know and I can take you and kayak from the clubhouse around 6-6.30-pm.
I've booked on the 15 Dec pool session. If anyone wants to learn SK skills eg self rescue skills or support strokes then I am happy to provide some coaching.
It was, They're now offering coaching as well.. Which has been super helpful. Im going this Friday of anyone wants to join me ?
I'll see if I can get a roof rack for my ladies car
Friday 9 Feb I am going to Dawlish, along with my niece Sophie. Sophie is a kayak polo player and rolls and handrolls for fun. She is happy to teach rolling to other people who are coming along. If you would like some teaching, reply to this thread and we can agree on what boats to take. It is easier to teach rolling when the paddler is using a short kayak.
We will be washing kayaks on Friday at the club at some stage.
Sounds like fun
I am also going this Friday 2nd if anyone is interested
There are 8 more sessions at Dawlish pool this season, they're also offering coaching if required.
can I bring a non-member friend to the Friday pool session in Dawlish? They are joining in the new season.
