Forth and Clyde Canoe Club
Glasgow,
Scotland
The Forth and Clyde Canoe Club was set up in 1993/4 at the request of the Forth & Clyde Canal Community Project. This was part of the initiative to promote greater use of the Forth and Clyde Canal as the club name suggests and also to provide access to the sport for anybody in Maryhill and the surrounding area. Arrangements were also made to provide practice and training through the winter months by organising teaching sessions in a local swimming pool.
In the early years of the Club the Canal Community Project and the Club were closely aligned, with the Canal Community Project supplying promotional facilities, equipment and storage areas and the club supplying personel and expertise when requested.
The Forth and Clyde Canoe Club and the Canal Community Project parted company in 1998 but the Club continues to promote canoeing in the Maryhill area, with charges kept to a minimum to encourage anyone interested to join.
The Forth and Clyde Canoe Club still provides assistance to the Canal Communnity Project, for special Community and Watersport events on the canal.
