INFORMATION
The South Niagara Canoe Club was founded in 2008 in an effort to utilise the wonderful Welland Canal course to greater effect. Encompassing the cities of Welland and Port Colborne (several times hosting National and Divisional Championships), South Niagara have had a great start. The club continues a paddling tradition in Niagara dating back to the Welland Canoe Club at the turn of the century. For the first few years they rented out space from the South Niagara Rowing Club until a compound was built in behind the International Flatwater Centre.
