SSCC welcomes a people from all walks of life, ages, paddling experience and paddling interests. Our members join us to meet new people, to participate in social activities, improve their paddle technique and skills, to get involved in club racing and inter-club racing and to develop skills that will enable them to transition from flat water to enclosed waters on Botany Bay to the open ocean.
We have a strong culture of being friendly, sharing knowledge and volunteering in a wide range of activities.
Formal club activities include introductory sessions, group flat water tours, and a monthly 5km time trial. Smaller groups of members are active in sea kayaking, marathon racing, multi sport events, ultra distance events, flatwater touring, canoe touring and surfski racing. If it’s happening in the NSW area, we probably have somebody who’s involved in it.
He was a Woiworrung and Yorta Yorta man at Wallaga Lake in southern New South Wales. He was originally named Harry Penrith but took the name of his great grandfather, which means Great Warrior. He may be best remembered for planting the Aboriginal flag on the white cliffs of Dover on the Australian Bicentenary Day of 26 January 1988.
