Kayaking is a fun and exciting water sport that enables participants to cruise on water surfaces and enjoy breathtaking views while working out a good sweat. It also cultivates teamwork, a sense of control and also helps to build confidence.

With the Singapore Sport Council’s efforts to allow water sports at various reservoirs, youths are now able to experience this nautical adventure in safe and controlled environments. However, it is crucial that participants are trained to row safely, and are aware of the necessary safety equipment and procedures.

This programme seeks to provide proper education to young rowers before they attempt to take up the sport. It gives youths aged 13 - 21 the opportunity to try out the sport and also brings them on a challenging nautical expedition.
