Paddle Sport Safety and Rescue

This course is designed to prepare candidates to become a Paddle Sport Instructor. The course covers everything safety related, that you need to know to look after a group on very sheltered water. 

To do the course the candidate must have basic boat handling skills – this must not be your first time in a boat! However you do not need to hold any awards, just feel happy in a Canoe, Kayak or SUP. Because this is a pre-requisite for the Paddle Sport Instructor you will need a preferred craft that you intend to use, which is what you will predominantly use on this course. However you may need to use other crafts for the purposes of practicing rescues.
