Winter Race Training
The aim for this Winter Training Programme is to provide race coaching (not basic learning to sail skills) for Club juniors and Youths over the winter months in order to keep up their enthusiasm for the sport and help prepare for next season. There will be 3 sessions over the winter months, on Saturdays, running from 10 to 3 pm. Target age range 9-16. Depending on numbers and ability the participants will be split into appropriate groups for some race training and coaching.
The training is open to Club and non-Club members. Children should already be competing in Club racing at any level, and may have sailed away from their Clubs at local or National level. Sailors should sail their own boats where possible. The classes we will use will be Optimists, Teras, Toppers or ILCAs. If you haven't got your own boats HSC Boats (subject to availability) may be hired from the Club at an additional cost.
In order for the training to take place we must have at least six participants on any particular date. Participants can sign up for each date individually BUT the closing date for each event is 10 days before the event date. Ideally please sign up as soon as possible to make administering this easier.
The cost per session is £15 for members and £25 for non-members. There is also the opportunity to purchase a hot lunch at a price of £3.50 per meal.
