USAORCA's member Pacific-Northwest- ORCA will be hosting the 2025 National Sprint Championship on October 3, 4 and 5th at Lake Vancouver, Vancouver, Washington!  Don't let the name throw you off track, this venue is less than 15 miles from downtown Portland, Oregon or PDX airport!  

The Nationals will include V1 and V6 in all divisions matching the divisions and distances of the IVF Sprint program.  V12 will not be included due to time constraints. 

Registration will be open to paddlers within the continental United States with registration fee of $100 to participate in as many events as the paddler is eligible.  Team entries will be registered by coach of the V6 entry with the 6 names provided during registration.  

As was done in 2023, the results of this National Championship will qualify crews and V1 individuals to enter under USAORCA for the 2026 IVF World Sprint Championship to be held in Singapore.  Dates will be August 17-31, 2026, more detailed schedule to be provided soon. 

For anyone interested in qualifying for the Singapore Elite crews (junior and open) for this event, paddlers MUST race a V1 500 meter race at this event.
