The Paddlesport Touring Leader is designed to get you out leading paddlers on large windy lochs and grade 1(2) rivers, so we'll be based in the Trossachs for this formal British Canoeing Awarding Body training course. 

We'll examine everything from leadership philosophy and methodology to venue selection and risk management and the other skills you need to lead a mixed fleet of up to six boats from your chosen craft. Regarding equipment, we can help you outfit yourself with specialist bits, but you will need your paddling clothing. 

The Trossachs' focus on the journey lends itself to this award, perfect for those working in clubs, centres, and organisations. It also works well with a Paddlesport Instructor Award to increase your remit and lead fun journeys.  

Although we are mainly based in the Trossachs, get in touch if you have a venue you'd like to use or would like a bespoke programme. We can tailor the course to your needs.
