First day.

On this first day we did no canoeing, but what we did do was just as important if not more.
We firstly had a presentation from Martin Cope, which included what our aim was, what the star rating system was for canoeists, what was needed from us and what qualifications we could gain. During this talk i decided myself that i wish to become a 3 star Canoeist at least with possibly 1 or 2 star coaching.
After we went out to check the kit and get ours, checking the kit made sure that what we were using was alright and no pieces were missing. Unfortunately some bags did have pieces missing but luckily there were enough pieces of kit for our group.
So its all away till we next need it, which we all hope will be next week.
