the “Canoe polo Seniors & Under 21 World Championships”, on behalf
of the Italian Canoe Kayak

and to appreciate this spectacular ball played
discipline, where the players, in competition
on their canoes
on the water, are the protagonists.
The Club, located in Idroscalo, is active in the organization
on the basin, which was created as
stop over for hydroplanes
but promptly dedicated to sports, of several big canoe events
starting
with the World Championships1999, two European Championships

the Club gives life to the Italian Flatwater Championship for
Senior, Junior, Paddle Ability athletes. Numerous have also been
the regional
tournaments that the association has carried out, and all this
has been possible mainly thanks
to the essential contribution
