Aug - Oct 2023
Our youngest members have made a huge amount of progress this term. Over the summer many attended training sessions at Cardiff Docks in addition to a river trip on the Taff. Many of our U14s have joined our U18s in attending development sessions for the Welsh Squad.
Welsh 4s season is back in full swing and Sharks and U14s have competed so far, with more of our teams due to compete in November and December.
Sharks finished 5th at the National Championship in August - Well done to them!
Congratulations also go to Beth and Katie who represented GB women at the Canoe Polo European Championship in Germany, where their team finished 4th.
The half term ended with very enjoyable bonfire and fireworks on Cwm Colhuw beach.
Awst - Hydref 2023
Mae ein haelodau ieuengaf wedi gwneud cynnydd aruthrol y tymor hwn. Dros yr haf mynychodd llawer o ein plant sesiynau hyfforddi yn Nociau Caerdydd yn ogystal â thaith afon ar yr Afon Taf. Mae llawer o'n tîm dan 14 wedi ymuno â'n tîm dan 18 i fynychu sesiynau datblygu ar gyfer Carfan Cymru.
Mae tymor 4s Cymru yn ôl yn ei anterth ac mae Siarcod a Dan 14 wedi cystadlu hyd yn hyn, gyda mwy o'n timau i gystadlu ym mis Tachwedd a Rhagfyr.
Gwnaeth y Siarcod gorffen yn 5ed yn y Bencampwriaeth Genedlaethol ym mis Awst - Da iawn iddynt!
Llongyfarchiadau hefyd i Beth a Katie a gynrychiolodd merched Prydain Fawr ym Mhencampwriaeth Ewropeaidd Polo Canŵ yn yr Almaen, lle gorffennodd eu tîm yn 4ydd.
Daeth yr hanner tymor i ben gyda choelcerth a thân gwyllt gwych ar draeth Cwm Colhuw.

The warm weather and lighter evenings have provided opportunity for Barry dock training to get into full swing. Jun and July was another busy couple of months for the club.
