From the 17th of April 2023, Viking Canoe Polo Club’s Monday night Sessions at Moorways Swimming Pool, Derby will have a new and extended schedule.

Following the loss of our Thursday night Sessions at Belper Leisure Centre last year we are now extending our Viking Mondays Sessions from 1.5 hours to 2 hours. This change also comes with a revised 4 session structure for all levels of ability.


Find the right Session for you:

Viking Mondays are coached sessions for all abilities with a range of Warm Ups, Drills and Games. For new starters and Youth paddlers at Viking we will invite you along as a Beginner and our coaches will be able to advise you on which sessions are suitable for you.


Beginner

8:00 – 9:00 PM

The first sessions on a Monday night are focused on Youth and Beginner paddlers. Youth paddlers are any ages between 11-18. These sessions are better suited for Youth/Beginner as there are a lot of coaches on hand to help with any questions.

Warm Up

8:00 – 8:15 PM

Beginner/ Improver Game

8:15 – 8:30 PM

Beginner/ Improver Drills

The next sessions on a Monday are for Viking’s Improvers. This may be a more appropriate session for you if you have prior canoe polo experience, but contact us in advance to make sure you are attending the right session for you.
