Wars & Fours

“Wars and Fours” is part of Cheema’s commitment to provide opportunities for older paddlers to “Continue to Train” and “Continue to Compete” as elements of our Long-Term Athlete Development programming. This program is designed to provide opportunities for paddlers who can no longer commit the time to be a high performance athlete competing in singles and doubles. However, this program provides for crew boat racing in K4s and/or C4s as well as war canoe.
Though the program can be for any athlete after U14, we expect that racing opportunities will be best provided for a critical mass of paddlers who are between 15 and 21 years of age, no longer part of our summer day program and likely a graduate of the “Train to Compete” or “Train to Win” High Performance Competitive programs.
Program Structure and Schedule: 3-4 sessions per week scheduled by the group with the coach. (General likelihood - Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 7-8:00pm; Saturday 11-12:00am). The one-hour sessions are offered from June 1stuntil the end of programming in August, with opportunities to extend paddling opportunities at either end of the on-water season.
Fees: $400 + $50 capital fund fee
