Handicap SystemIn order to ‘set’ paddlers into suitable coaching groups, the club runs a handicap system. The handicap is the number of seconds longer that it takes a paddler to paddle the distance a World Champion covers in one minute. The club uses a pre-ordained course of 4 kilometres around the D’Oyley Carte and Desborough islands for its handicap races. All members are given the opportunity to improve their handicap number at the weekly club races and move through the coaching groups at their own rate of progress.
