The aim of
Junior Sailing is for youngsters to learn basic sailing skills, gain
experience and have fun. Those who are beginners and just learning to
sail will be assisted to sail in Toppers on thier own, or to learn the
basics in a Club GP14 in the company of a knowledgable sailor.
The more experienced can gain a greater understanding of racing, and
will be encouraged to compete in the three Junior competitions - the
Saturday Plaque, the Cadet Shield and the Jane Shore Trophy.
Please remember that organisers are principally dependent on the
strength of the wind and the number of adult helpers who are available
- the stronger the wind, the more help that is required !
All children taking part need an adult in attendance.
Sessions will
start at 12:30pm
with a race at
about 1:45pm
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Jeremy on the Junior Training e-mail account
