Boat & Equipment Loan Scheme

How it Works

If you want to go kayaking regularly, it makes great sense to have a kayak at home to use whenever you get the opportunity.

Our “Suzy boat loan scheme” enables club members (priority is given to juniors) to borrow kayaks that are suitable for placid water, slalom, freestyle and white water river running.

The scheme is ideal for you if:

    • you are still growing
    • you are not sure what sort of kayak to buy
    • you cannot afford the cost of a new boat

The loan scheme allows you to borrow a kayak for a year, to look after and use as though it was your own – in return you promise to treat it carefully and pay a small sum for wear and tear.

You can also borrow a helmet, paddle, buoyancy aid, cagoule and spraydeck.

You’ll need to have somewhere lockable to store the boat and kit, a car to transport it, plus roof bars and straps.

Details are on the document “One Year Contract” – contact the Boat Loan Scheme organiser to check that a suitable kayak is available.

We encourage interested adults to help support and train the juniors and, above all, HAVE FUN!

Even if you’ve never been in a kayak/canoe before you’re welcome to come along to watch or join in. Beginners, improvers and families are welcome. The Club has 4 youth sections (requiring adult helpers) and 1 adult section. Click on each Club Section to find out more:

3. Blades Freestyle

4. TYKs (Tandridge Young Kayakers for under 12’s)

5. Blades Plus – over 18’s supporting any of the 4 youth sections

As a member of at least one Club Section, you can take part in our progressive training programme. We have a full year-round programme, with opportunities to paddle several times each week. We have kayaks and canoes for hire and loan to members, so you don’t need to buy before you join.

Activities range from a relaxing paddle to advanced whitewater kayaking – there’s something to suit all interests and abilities. Click here to see how to contact someone on the committee. As standard Club procedure, all adult Coaches and members of Blades Plus will be asked to complete a DBS check.
