The Youth Sprint Program, formerly Canoe Kids, is a half-day summer paddling program for athletes aged 8–14 who want to learn sprint canoe and kayak in a supportive, team-focused club environment. Athletes build paddling skills, confidence, and teamwork while training alongside experienced coaches and athletes.

Participants learn the fundamentals of sprint paddling in both individual and team boats, with opportunities to experience racing throughout the summer. Youth Sprint is ideal for athletes looking to stay active, try a new sport, and grow within a structured sport program.
