Canoe Sprint
Canoe sprint was an Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) scholarship sport from 1988 to 2013.
The Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) provided scholarships and programs for able-bodied sprint athletes from 1988 to 2013.
Sometimes referred to as flatwater canoe/kayak, the program was based in Queensland, initially in Maroochydore but moved to Pizzey Park on the Gold Coast when a new training facility opened in 1991.
During 2013, the AIS transitioned out of athlete scholarships and sport programs. Responsibility for coaches, athletes and programs was transferred to the principal National Sporting Organisation for canoe/kayak at the time.
This page includes athletes who were on AIS scholarship for at least three months consecutively. All reasonable efforts have been made to ensure that the information is accurate and comprehensive.
