NEW ADULT TRAINING SESSIONS WINTER 2026-2027
This year we are going to run a series of adult improver training sessions over the winter. These are aimed at committed improvers who are keen to keep up their development over the winter and are prepared to sail on cold conditions and have suitable peronal kit to do so. The sessions will be led by Adam Pickett, Steve Tulley and Karen Gregory. They will run from 10am -4pm on the following dates:
- Sat 7 Nov
- Sat 5 Dec
- Sat 16 Jan
- Sat 27 Feb
- Sat 20 March
The cost will be £20 per person plus £7.50 per person for use of a club boat.
We will be changing the booking system over the winter, so any bookings made before Sat 14 Nov 26 will be on the old system. They will remain valid but will not be accessible on the new system after that date.
ADULT IMPROVERS
The YDSC Adult Improvers series comprises of 1+8 sessions and a regatta. These sessions, run from 1pm-4.30pm (please arrive at 12.30). The sessions are aimed at those graduating from beginner sessions. If you have just bought a dinghy and are needing some support then this is the one for you. It includes an introduction to racing. Use your own boats where possible, but club training boats are available. One booking per person, so 2 needed for a double hander.

COSTS
Tuition at these training sessions is free to members. However, we ask for a voluntary contribution of £15 per person per session towards the cost of fuel for the safety boats and upkeep of training boats and equipment. Please add a further £7.50 per session if you are using a club boat rather than your own. This will be payable when booking the session. Please bear in mind that none of the coordinators, instructors or helpers receive any financial return for their voluntary efforts.
