There are lots of brilliant (& expensive) waterproof camera covers out there but my lived experience has been that there's nothing like a plastic bag to do the job 😂 Great work @Jennings2Maddy tonight exploring athlete empowerment 👏 #coachdeveloperdiaries

"Canoe slalom is a sport like no other, it is exciting, you build friendships and confidence - it will change your life!"

GB canoe athlete @eilidhgibson4 started @SlalomInspires to inspire more girls to pick up a paddle! 💫

@BritishCanoeing ⤵️

[Slalom Inspires @SlalomInspires]

Isn’t it incredible that girls coming into our sport now will only ever know a time that they didn’t have equal opportunities at the Olympics?!

How lucky we all are to have these pioneers as role models 😍

Nothing is stopping this next generation!

The future is so bright ✨

[Maddy Jennings @Jennings2Maddy]

@Mall_Franklin is lighting fires all over the UK with this INCREDIBLE achievement 🤩 SO many young girls will finally be getting opportunities you had you make for yourself. What a role model. What an inspiration. 💙🛶🥈

[Eilidh Gibson @eilidhgibson4]

It’s hard to put into words how momentous this is🔥
@Mall_Franklin competed in the men’s category in the UK before there was a women’s category. She is a pioneer and continues to show us what is possible!
No one deserves to be on this first podium more❤️
So proud 🇬🇧🥈

Pictured below is a Scottish seal suffering in the tropics of London. Joking aside it’s super refreshing paddling in the ☀️ again and even better being back on the big water 🌊

That’s uni wrapped up with a 2:1 🎉Juggling 2 jobs, training and a degree was not a particularly balanced act but hey it worked most of the time 😅
Key learning point from 4th year: boxsets make great laptop stands 👌
Thanks for all the support @WinningStudents @scottishcanoe 😁

[Maddy Jennings @Jennings2Maddy]

@MorrisCraig_ @PosCoachDev @scottishcanoe Me too! 😅

[Maddy Jennings @Jennings2Maddy]

This guy did his first descent down the mighty Grandtully rapids yesterday. A milestone in any Scottish paddler’s journey! Congrats @PosCoachDev 🥳🛶
