Sport Overview

Postponement has been decided for the World Masters Games 2021 Kansai.
The new dates are being arranged.
Please note that the followings are the information before the postponement was confirmed.



Canoe slalom is held in a course on a running river. Each boat starts separately, and the objective is to pass through gates in a predetermined order. The boat with the best time and the least points deducted when passing through the gates wins. The discipline is classified into singles and doubles depending on the number of crew members. Each boat has two chances on the course, and the better of the two results is recorded.
