RYA Courses for Juniors (available for members only)
We will again run 3 groups of of RYA courses over July and August for juniors which will offer training for beginners through to advanced modules for more experienced sailors. Booking will open in around March 2019.
Each block of courses will likely feature a Stage 1-2 course to be run in Optimists/SailQubes and suitable for beginners between 7 and 14 years old.
For each of the blocks we will also try to offer one of the advanced modules for training in Fevas - perhaps "Sailing with Spinnakers" and "Seamanship".
The Seamanship course would be open to those in Toppers and Lasers and is a good pathway course to prepare for taking on Dinghy Instructor training. This course will be run in July during RYA 1.
Depending on demand we will also run courses to build the capabilities of children who learned to sail last season and have their stage 1 and 2 or a similar level of experience. This will likely consist of RYA stage 3, again in Optimists/SailQubes

- 15th-19th July Junior Training 1: Stage 1-2; Sailing with Spinnakers; Seamanship. (15th July will be a boat prep day, courses run 16th-18th with 19th July a spare day)
