Why Join?

The best way to support our work is to join us.

Our Vision

"Everyone can paddle"

We believe that paddlesport is something that everyone should be able to enjoy regardless of background or circumstances. We want to make the sport more accessible and will work in partnership with organisations to seek out how to remove real and perceived barriers that prevent people taking up and flourishing in our sport.


The SCA vision underpins everything we do. Our work is vast and ranges from supporting individual, coach & club development, to organising paddling events, to advising and working with other organisations including sportscotland on high level governance and developing the future of the sport. To find out more about what we do and our plans for the future, visit the 'What We Do' page. 

Why Should I Join?

Support: By joining the SCA you will add your voice to the existing members to help us support paddlesports in Scotland. The SCA is only as strong as the members we represent. You'll be part of the biggest paddling network in Scotland offering support to you as an individual in many ways. 


Insurance: SCA membership is your passport to paddle across the globe with the right insurance cover. You will have Public/Products Liability Insurance to a limit of £10 million, which is valid Worldwide (excluding USA and Canada for Management Liability). This will protect you if you are held responsible for causing injury to another person or financial loss or damage to someone else's property. If you are a member of an Affiliated Club, the insurance you receive through that is only valid during official club activity. By being an SCA member you can paddle outside of your club environment safe in the knowledge that you are properly covered. 


Savings: There are hundreds of savings open to you as an SCA member. Most of these are directly through the SCA on a wide variety of events, courses, and selected awards, and SCA discounts are available on a wide range of paddling and non-paddling related goods/services. Full members are also entitled to the membership benefit scheme JustGo Rewards, which gives discounts with major retailers. 

What Do I Get?

There are a few membership categories, the main ones being Full, Junior and Recreational - visit the membership page to find out more. Here are a few of the benefits available:

 

  • Scottish Paddler - the SCA magazine delivered quarterly
  • Monthly member e-newsletters
  • Extensive discounts on SCA courses and events
  • Access to a large support network consisting Access Advisors, Regional Officers, and invitation to regional open forums
  • Option to include craft insurance (Full & Junior members only)
