About the OCA
The OCA exists to promote everything to do with canoeing and to help its members get the most out of their sport. Individuals and families are welcome, regardless of experience.
We've put together some answers to the most frequently asked questions here along with some notes of how we run our trips
How to join

Skills and Coaching
We aim to increase the skill and enjoyment of our members through the provision of high-quality, low-cost coaching. This is both informal during outings and also through training sessions aimed at honing the skills required by the BCU Star Awards.OCA Emporium
