Youth Fleet

We are a RYA accredited Training Centre and offer the RYA Youth Training Scheme for 8 to 16 year-olds and who are members of the Club. Using our fleet of junior boats (Toppers, RS Fevas and RS Qubas), the youth training scheme operates on Saturday mornings from the beginning of April through to the end of October.

Training is run by several fully qualified instructors, assisted, from time to time, by experienced sailors. We make a small charge for each session. Alongside the Youth Scheme, we offer training for parents who wish to learn to sail. As progression is made, we will encourage participation in the Club racing, either on their own or with an experienced club sailor. On Saturdays we can arrange separate starts for the training fleets.

As members, youths and parents have access to the water at any time when there is support boat cover (generally, Tuesday evenings and all-day Saturdays and Sundays).

The Club organises a range of social events during the year which the youth fleet and parents are very welcome to attend. We will also endeavour to arrange a few events just for the youth, such as away days to other clubs, and a youth week during the summer holidays.
