The first recognized canoeing competition was held in 1869 and it was organized by John MacGregor, the founder of the British Royal Canoe Club (RCC). Its popularity started to grow in Europe and America and soon trans-Atlantic competition commenced with the founding of the New York Canoe Club. The first women’s competition was also organized in Russia, and by the 1890s, canoe sport was very popular and had a large following in Europe. The next milestone for the sport was its inclusion as an Olympic discipline and it debuted at the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games.
SCF Canoe Polo Committee is conducting a special one-off CP1 conversion exercise for canoe polo players who had participated at least once in the National Canoe Polo Championships (NCPC) held in Singapore prior to 2020. For more information, please click here.
