Prairie Region Training Centre

One of only four national training centres in Canada, based at Gimli Yacht Club on Lake Winnipeg.

Early talent, systematic training, and a sustainable pipeline of athletes, coaches and officials from Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

Athletes, coaches and officials

Athletes

Training programs for different skill levels, with cross-provincial teammates and local regattas so you do not have to trailer your boat across the prairies.

Coaches

Aspiring competitive coaches are mentored by regional and national high performance coaches.

Officials

A pathway for race officials to build experience at higher-level regattas close to home.

From a talent camp to a training group

Regional Talent ID Camps

Athletes are first invited to a regional camp where they are assessed.

Structured training

Programs for every level, led by regional and national high performance coaches.

Racing at home
