Kid-in-a-Kayak


What is Kid-in-a-Kayak?

Kid-in-a-Kayak (KIAK) was conceptualized as a means of allowing children of primary school age to experience the fun of kayaking and develop an interest in paddle sports under the guidance of dedicated coaches who are both passionate about the sport and enjoy working with children.

 

Using equipment and paddles specially constructed for young bodies, children enrolled in this programme will pick up kayaking skills in a fun environment, and also make new friends through the sport.

 

We hope that KIAK will provide a good foundation for children to eventually progress on to specific kayak disciplines of their interest, such as sprint, canoe polo and slalom, or to simply enjoy the great outdoors on a kayak expedition.

 

Update: As of July 2020, SportSG has taken over the operation of KIAK, in collaboration with the SCF. Thank you for all your support over the last four years, which has enabled primary school kids to experience Canoe Sprint for the very first time in the history of the sport in Singapore. 

 

Let’s look forward together to more good things to come with KIAK 2020!
