Welcome!
Welcome to the Brisbane Outrigger Canoe Club’s new and improved website. This site provides information for members, friends and interested paddlers on the sport of outrigger canoe racing, coming regattas, and social functions and events.
Outrigging is an exciting, exhilarating, and challenging experience which promotes fitness, teamwork and a healthy outdoor lifestyle. It does not discriminate against age or sex and is great fun on the river or out on the ocean. Outrigger canoeing is for everyone and there are now clubs located all along the eastern seaboard of Australia and in Western Australia. Brisbane Outrigger Canoe Club (BOCC) has men’s, women’s and mixed teams in Open, Masters and Senior Masters age divisions.
It is Brisbane Outrigger Canoe Club’s mission to provide a safe and supportive environment for our members, and to introduce and encourage new paddlers to become the paddlers of the future.
Our goal is to encourage camaraderie, team spirit and the spirit of competition that is the sport of outrigger canoe racing. If you have never paddled before, or have a water sports background, and are looking for a challenge, we welcome you to try outrigger canoeing.
