Experience kayak polo – a unique blend of handball and kayaking. Two teams compete on the water with a ball while maneuvering in specially designed polo kayaks. You'll learn basic paddling, submerge yourself underwater, and become comfortable with capsizing and regaining control.
During training, you'll practice assisted rescues, Greenland rolls, paddling technique, throwing drills, and attack and defense strategy. The club provides all equipment: polo kayak, paddle, helmet, spray deck, and life vest.
Arrive in swimwear and a t-shirt – we recommend thick socks or neoprene shoes. Free trial training requires no registration. If interested, membership for beginners costs only 500 kr. through March, then 1,500 kr. annually (including access to the club's sea kayaking division). Aarhus Kayak Polo Club trains at multiple levels with both professionalism and camaraderie, and participates annually in the Danish championship tournament in summer plus smaller competitions throughout the year.
