Richmond Canoe Club was founded in 1944. Today, the club concentrates on sprint and marathon racing and recreational paddling, both in canoes and kayaks, for paddlers of all ages.
We have a thriving junior section, a broad range of adult training groups, and many keen groups of paddlers who enjoy getting out on the river all year round.
For many years now, Richmond Canoe Club has been the base away from home for a large number of foreign paddlers, many of whom compete at international level. Australians, Kiwis, South Africans, Irish and more have all made Richmond their training base in England.
