Junior Training 2010


Saturdays - 12:30 through Early Afternoon.
17th April through to September.
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
