Hendri Coetzee Award for Expedition of the Year

Many remarkable expeditions are embarked on each year, from backyard exploring to remote International expeditions. These are often the most impressive stories in kayaking. This award is given to the expedition felt to be the most compelling, ground breaking, or exploratory and is awarded in honour of our friend and whitewater legend, Hendri Coetzee. Hendri died this year while passionately pursuing a life worth living. Memory of his passion, determination, drive and boldness will live on.
