RYA Training Level 1+2 YSS Stage 1-4 - 16 May
Published 12:45 on 25 Apr 2026
The Club is running two training courses over the next six weeks; they are RYA Level 1 & 2 (Start Sailing & Basic Skills) and RYA Youth Sailing Scheme Stages 1 to 4.
The Welcome and Introduction will be on Friday 1st May from 18:30 -21:00
In a change of format, the practical element will be spread over a number of weekends as follows:
- Saturday 16 May
- Sunday 17 May
- Saturday 30 May
- Sunday 31 May
- Saturday 13 June
- Sunday 14 June
Volunteers are needed to act as patrol boat crew, tractor drivers, beach crew, and shore crew (to keep an eye on the clubhouse, etc). The beach crew should be prepared to get wet and engage with cadets (in Oppies).
Whether or not you, or your family, are on a course, why not help with the training? It can be fun. If you would like to help, go to the RYA Training Programme (here), make sure you are Logged in, scroll to one of the training days, and click on the appropriate Volunteer button.
Each day is nominally 09:00 to 16:00. If you cannot cover a whole day, your help will still be invaluable and "part-time" can be catered for.
If anyone needs any further information please contact Steve Sharp Chief Instructor Sailing (here)
