Australian Sailing - Green Fleet Coaching Program

Course information

Registrations for this course are closed.

Our Junior Sail Training Green Fleet (Green Fleet Coaching) Program is designed for kids aged 8 to 16 years who have completed the Australian Sailing - Start Sailing 1 & 2 Prgram.

REGISTER FOR THIS COURSE USING THE BLUE 'REGISTER' BUTTON IN THE LHS BOX.

NOTE Parents & Guardians - Please ensure you register using your child's revSPORT username and password and not your own, to allocate this Junior Sailing Program correctly.

Green Fleet sailors will cement the foundation skills previously learnt and are prepared for club racing or adventure sailing in an environment where the focus is on fun and enjoyment.   Syllabus includes classroom learning, cruising to a destination, sailing exercises, sailing adventure games and club racing.

Current sailing classes in our Green Fleet are O’pen Skiffs for single-handed sailing instruction and Flying 11's (F11) for double handed sailing instruction. F11 sailing will engage course participants to participate initially as crew with a more experienced Assistant Instructor as helm.  All the equipment, including the boats, is provided for Green Fleet Level and discounts are available if you bring your own boat.

Instruction runs between 9am and noon each relevant Saturday.

Find our 2025-26 sailing program HERE.

Eligible persons must be either SPASC Family or Junior members, so you need to join your children to the club as membersFIRST before you attempt to register them for this course. If you have multiple children doing courses it will be cheaper to join as a family group, single individual children can be a junior member. As mentioned above the registration needs to be in their name as Australian Sailing tracks training by each individual not their parents.

As a parent(s) of a child undertaking one of our sailing courses it is a condition that you will be occasionally able to assist with running aspects of the club. This may include assisting your child (and others) to manage boats into and out of the water, assist your child to set up and/or pack up and clean boats after use, assist in the canteen or on the bbq, volunteer at fundraising events and offer other general assistance in running the club as you may be able to. We need your involvement!


Program Focus:

Green Fleet is an introduction to coaching and learning to train.

Green Fleet promotes practicing the fundamental skills of sailing, introduces some foundation race skills through training activities in an environment that is enjoyable, without a competition focus.
