Vancouver Canoe Polo Club (VCPC)
The Vancouver Dragons are a canoe polo club that practices on a
weekly basis year-round. In the summer we play outdoors at Deep Cove and
in the winter we retreat to the SFU pool. Dragons range in skill level
from new players who have never been in a kayak to current and former
national team
members. VCPC is affiliated with the Whitewater Kayaking Association of BC
(WKABC).
A
combination of kayaking and water polo, canoe polo is a full contact sport.
For an introduction to the rules of the sport, check out
