Autumn Race Coaching

This Autumn the Club is again running a series of free and informal race coaching sessions. Run by David Clay with help from Karen Smailes, Paul Robson and Jon Clay, the sessions are designed for members who currently race (or intend to start racing during the autumn/winter) and who want to learn more and improve.  The sessions are open to everyone, although it is recommended that you have at least RYA Level 2 (or sail to the same standard).

The sessions will run from 1300 to 1645 on the following dates:
Sunday 4 October
Sunday 18 October
Sunday 1 November

What is covered during each session is subject to change depending on the weather, but topics will include:

  • racing rules and tactics
  • the start and finish
  • mark rounding
  • sailing a good course
  • adjusting sail controls
  • improving boat speed
Places are first come, first served and limited to 12 per session.  You are welcome to come on 1, 2 or all 3 sessions but will get the most benefit from attending all 3 sessions.
To reserve your place, or if you have any questions, please email davidgclay@hotmail.com
