Our development team is where paddlers who would like to explore our sport start to develop their skills. It takes thousands of strokes to get proficient enough to race. Athletes will be able to practice both canoe and kayak before selecting their discipline of choice.

No experience required. Vancouver Lake Rowing Club provides all needed equipment.

We practice 3 days per week M/W/F 6:30pm-8:00pm

Development Team is $100 a month

Athletes will work on developing skills in canoe/kayak on the water. We will work on technique, drills, aerobic capacity, and endurance. Athletes can expect to be on the water for about 45 minutes (until it gets dark). Once it's dark from mid-November onwards, we will primarily work on the stationary rowing machines and bikes instead of going out on the water.

Atheletes will work on basic plyometrics in our weight room. We plan to build strength, stability, and coordination. Athletes can expect to do strength work for about 45 minutes.

Athletes can also expect to go through video review and analysis on a bi-weekly basis to better understand their current technique and how to improve.
