What we're about

Kayak Polo, also known as Canoe Polo is one of the eight disciplines of canoeing. Kayak Polo combines canoeing and ball handling skills with an exciting contact team game, where tactics and positional play are as important as the speed and fitness of the individual athletes. It is a cross between water polo, basketball, and hockey. Please join us in the pool, we'd be happy to show you what it's all about :) If your have any questions drop us a line here on Meetup! (https://www.meetup.com/NYkayakpolo/) and follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/pages/New-York-Kayak-Polo/465827163439084) for event photos and videos.

Upcoming events (4+)

Social Saturday Kayak Polo

Yanitelli Recreational Life Center

PLEASE SIGN UP AT LEAST 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE! We will need to cancel sessions that do not have at least 6 people signed up.

Our Saturday sessions are good opportunities to get introduced to the sport. We have all the gear you will need, so just bring shorts and a shirt that you will be comfortable swimming in. If you have not played with us before, expect to learn/demonstrate how to safely exit your boat when it is capsized. (Or show off your roll if you’ve got it!) Either way, you will get wet :)

If you have not played with us before, please either contact the session hosts or post a comment, so that we can be ready to get you introduced to the club and sport, and alert you if this session is not the right one for you to join.

Our play time is 3:30pm - 5:00pm. Please arrive at 3pm to change and begin setting up the pool and goals once the previous group has cleared the area so that we can start play at 3:30. Play needs to stop by 5:00, so that we can set the pool back up for swimming, shower & change, and exit the building before it closes at 6:00pm.

You can try one session for free. After that, if you have not paid season/annual club dues, the single-session event fee is $25.
