Attend our off-season practices, which run from September to March! We ask that you commit to ONE (1) of each practice type per week. Here are the specific steps:

1. Please sign up for dryland practices using our EventBrite page, under the "Sign Ups" tab, which will be released at the start of every week (Monday latest).
   

2. Sign a safety waiver and bring it to your first practice/email a signed, scanned copy to macdboat@gmail.com before your first practice.
   

3. Pay your General Membership fee ($20.00 CAD, see Fees for more details) by your SECOND dryland. This fee will cover ALL practices and fitness training for off-season practices.

Nope! All are welcome, regardless of previous experience! Our coaches run a learn-to-paddle program for newcomers, so that you can develop a good foundation.

Off-season practices have officially started!! In case you weren't able to make it to the general meeting in September and would still like to join us, feel free to contact us through one of our socials (and we look forward to meeting you :))

Of course! As mentioned previously, our practices are open for all to join from September to March. We ask that all general members pay a $20.00 CAD fee to join us for the off-season - as mentioned, this fee goes towards ALL practices and fitness testing for this period.

Be warned though: our sport and its community are AMAZING, regardless of whether you're joining recreationally or competitively. Many fall in love with it!!!

Throughout the school year we run semesterly fitness tests to gauge skill, strength, endurance, and overall improvement! These are mandatory for those who are thinking of trying out for our competitive roster.

Even if you are just joining us recreationally, we highly recommend that you complete these tests, as they help you identify where you can improve for the future!

All individuals from all fitness backgrounds are welcome to join MDBC!
