Junior Sailing Program
Continuous Program

Course Overview:
This course is designed for children between the ages of 7 and 14 who want to learn how to sail in a fun and exciting environment. It doesn’t matter whether the child has never sailed before or is learning to race. This course caters for each student’s individual needs.

The Junior Sailing Program follows the current system:

Level 1
This is the initial entry level of the course. It is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable introduction to dinghy sailing. At the completion of this level, students will be familiar with small boats and possess essential safety knowledge.

Level 2
This level is designed to further the knowledge gained in Level 1. Level 2 includes an introduction to fundamental boat handling skills whilst under the supervision of an instructor.

Level 3
This level is designed to introduce new skills and knowledge to allow the freedom of sailing small with guidance from an instructor.

Level 4
This level is designed to consolidate the experiences and knowledge gained in Level 3 and to enable the student to safely and competently sail a small boat without an instructor on board.

XTREME RACING
Xtreme Racing runs on a Saturday afternoon on the club racing course. Students in the program are coached around the course as they race to the finish line!

Every student is issued with their own log book which will guide them through the levels of the Junior Sailing Program.
