We are delighted to announce that RYA Instructor Tricia Ordsmith is returning this year to run Junior Sail Training sessions during August.
This year we will again be offering RYA Youth Stages 1 (beginners) and Stage 2/3 (intermediate) sessions on Monday and Thursday mornings for juniors age 8 and over. Afternoon sessions on those days will depend on participants. We may offer more Stage 2/3 sessions and/or start racing.
For further information on JST, or if you are willing to assist with the running of JST sessions either on land or on the water, please contact Nicoll Moss nicoll.moss69@btinternet.com
We are holding adult novice sailing sessions during Whit week and on three Fridays in August as an introduction to the basics of sailing and racing. This will give you the opportunity to have a morning of sailing (maybe even racing?) with others of a similar standard. We hope that experienced club sailors will come along to share their knowledge. For more on these sessions, please contact Joey Coombs:
Against all the odds, the incredible organisational skills of Nicoll Moss and Tricia Ordsmith, together with the efforts of Sally McC, the JST parents and our team of dinghy instructors, resulted in several great weeks of intensive, regulation- compliant sail training. This enabled many of our juniors to complete crucial RYA training stages. Congratulations to:
Ella, Evie, John, Charlie, Madeleine, Lauren, Megan, Toby and George for completing Stage 2; Ella, Sorcha, Leah, and Kiera for completing stage 3; and Kate, Shannon, Spike, Kodie, Jack, Tim and Ellen for completing Start Racing.
