RQ Youth Girls — Windsurf Session
Wednesday 8 July 2026 | 1:30pm – 4:30pm
Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, Manly

The RQYS Sailing Academy is excited to host its very first RQ Youth Girls event! A fun afternoon windsurf session on the lay day between the Gill Queensland Youth Week Coaching Clinic and Regatta.

Open to all youth sailing girls aged 10–23, this session welcomes RQYS members and girls from visiting clubs alike. No windsurfing experience? No worries, all levels are welcome and equipment is provided.

Timed perfectly around high tide at 3pm, the afternoon wraps up with a well-earned afternoon tea and a chance to connect with other girls from around the state.

Afternoon tea is a shared affair! We'd love everyone to bring a plate of something to share! Whether it's a batch of cookies, some fruit, or your mum's famous slice, it all adds to the fun.

What's included:
- Windsurfing session with equipment provided
- Shared afternoon tea (please bring a plate to share!)
- Good company!

We also have a group chat set up, it's the best place to stay in the loop with any updates and connect with the other girls before the day and help orgnaise future events. Join here: RQ YOUTH GIRLS

Experience Overview

A Discover Sailing Experience is an approximate three-hour sailing experience at an accredited Discover Sailing Centre, without the technical detail of a course, for families, friends, or work colleagues. Having the chance to use the Centre’s social facilities is as much a part of the experience as is getting out on the water. The aim of a Discover Sailing Experience is to encourage participants to want to do more sailing at the club and possibly register for a Discover Sailing Course.

Course Prerequisites

Water confident.

Who should do this course?

This is the perfect 'taster' for anyone who wants to discover sailing for the first time. This is the perfect introduction and can be the ideal way for you to begin your sailing journey, without having to commit to a full training course.

Course Outcome

Following the course, you will receive a completion certificate.

 

We recognise that some of our course participants are completing the Duke of Edinburgh's International Award and may be using sailing and/or club membership to complete one or more sections of The Award. To learn more, click here.
