University of Birmingham Kayak Club

Hello, and welcome to the Birmingham University Kayak Club website.
We're a very friendly bunch of people, catering for all sorts, ranging from complete beginners to experts, from polo addicts to mad keen river runners, and more than one or two who prefer to spend time in the pub than get cold and wet outside.
For more information, like our pool session times, details of socials, all that sort of thing, either log in or create an account... you'll find the form below.

Have fun!
