Location
Stafford and Stone Canoe Club is centrally located in the country and offers the advantage of great training all year round plus relatively easy access to all the major slalom sites in the country.
At first sight, the river Trent at Stone doesn’t seem very exciting. The river is channelled by stone walls which form well defined eddies, but there are no waves. The river though is perfect for honing technique before moving on to more difficult water. The other advantage is that it is easy to paddle back up the entire course. This makes more intense training sessions more viable. And there are permanent floodlights for the winter. No excuses!
