Mission Statement
- The mission of the New York Paddlesports Racing Association (NYPRA) is to promote the growth of paddlesports in New York State, fight against the misuse of our natural waterways, and embody excellence in sportsmanship and fair play.
- We are an all-inclusive group, welcoming persons from all walks of life to participate in NYPRA-sanctioned events using Paddle Boards, Kayaks, Canoes, and any other human-powered craft. NYPRA is dedicated to fostering a strong paddling community by supporting well-organized events that ensure smooth, timely, safe, and accessible on-water competitions.
- A key focus is inspiring the next generation of paddlers by promoting youth participation through outreach programs, training opportunities, and youth-friendly events, helping young paddlers connect with nature and develop essential skills.
- As a facilitator and liaison between various North American paddlesport governing bodies, including the United States Canoe Association, American Canoe Association, Michigan Canoe Racing Association, Canot Marathon du Quebec, and New England Canoe and Kayak Racing Association, NYPRA strengthens and unites the paddling community.
