skills on rivers with higher volume and faster-moving water than at home provides a much more challenging and rewarding experience. Certainly, this experience will stand to the kayaker on return home. The DF Kayak Club provides training and support for kayakers in
the Defence Forces and also provides support to recruit river-crossing exercises; cadet adventure training; DF triathlon events; safety sup- port for the annual Liffey Descent race; and adventure training for An Gaisce participants For those interested in the sport, the DF Kayak Club provides train-
ing courses (beginners- to advanced-level) and courses in river safety and rescue.
