Youth Sailing Academy

Youth Sailing Academy

The Youth Sailing Academy is designed for Youth Sailors at GSC, running for a total of 12 weeks on-board the Magic 25 sailing boats under the guidance of experienced coaches. The course aims to improve boat handling skills in the larger boats whist increasing the participant’s knowledge of sailing with both a symmetrical and a-symmetrical spinnaker. This includes introducing and developing match racing techniques. Our main focus is to develop the skills of youth sailors at our club through fun participation. By the end of the 12 week course we hope to enter one or two teams into the Harken Regatta held out of Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club.

We endeavor to have 2-3 coaches running the sessions each week. This is a great opportunity to meet similar leveled sailors and have a great time out on the water! Come along, have fun and increase your knowledge and skills in the exciting Magic 25 sailing boats. Please note: Participants must be at least 13 years of age and have completed 3 years minimum of skippering.
