2015 ICF World Canoe Slalom Championships

The ICF World Canoe Slalom Championships 2015 are heading to Lee Valley White Water Centre on the 16th-20th September. Tickets are one sale already here:  ICF Canoe Slalom World Championship Tickets.


  

If you are considering going to this huge event, here is what you can expect to experience on your visit.

 

Witness 300 of the World’s Best Canoe Slalom Athletes in Action


 

The ICF World Canoe Slalom Championships 2015 is the largest international canoeing event outside of the Olympics. The event at Lee Valley will welcome the world’s best Canoe Slalom athletes from across 55 countries competing 5 different disciplines with the hope of not only gaining the title of World Champion in their event, but also a spot on Team GB for Rio 2016.

 

Cheer Live as you Watch who Qualifies for Rio 2016


 

Sticking with Rio 2016, this is the only place you will get to watch the athletes qualify in real time, cheering them along the way. If you have been following athletes on their ‘Road to Rio’ you could witness history being made as Team GB assembles around you.

 

Try Paddling for Yourself

 

If watching the world class athletes inspires you to want to try paddling as you have never done it yourself before, or even want to encourage the children to have a go, you can do that at the World Championships. Go Canoeing will be there help you learn the ropes and encourage you to have a go all for free.

 

Enjoy Family Activities for Free

 

If you’re not in the mood to hit the water, don’t worry, there are many more free activities for the whole family to enjoy. Practise tricks on the Bungee Trampolines, explore the Pirate Ship Fun House or see who can reach the top first on the climbing wall.

 

Meet World Class Athletes in Person

 

Maybe one of the most exciting aspects of the ICF World Canoe Slalom Championship is that you may also get to meet the athletes off the water. Have a picture taken, quiz them about how they reached the success they are now experiencing or tell them how they may have inspired you to get involved in the sport. Where else would you have this opportunity?
