RQ Youth Squad Training
Advance Your Sailing
The RQ Youth Squad including Green Fleet is a development program consisting of young sailors with expertise in various boat classes. This squad brings together diverse fleets, forming a cohesive team. Led by our Head Coach Adrian Finglas and facilitated by our certified Australian Sailing Coaches. The RQ Youth Squad and Green Fleet conduct regular group training sessions during school terms, guiding members towards competitive success at state, national, and even world levels. The program seamlessly integrates with Club Racing, offering ample opportunities for students to engage as part of the club. The squad operates year-round which includes our specialized Green Fleet for beginners who are starting their racing journey.
Our Squads
Green Fleet
The Green Fleet program is tailored for novice sailors, featuring dedicated coaching and a distinct curriculum. It serves as the natural progression following the Tackers 3 or Start Sailing 1 & 2 courses. Green Fleet operates in Optimists for sailors who have completed the Tackers courses or the RS Quests for teen sailors who have completed Start Sailing 1 & 2 course. We offer boat hire options to newcomers, ensuring accessibility for all aspiring sailors. Our Quest sailors train on Saturdays and our Optimist sailors train on Sundays. The Optimists also have the option to train after school in Summer. RQYS membership is a requirement of participation.
