Laser youth winter training is aimed at Laser sailors interested in improving their sailing, including racing. It is open to all Laser youth sailors who are competent and ready for intensive coaching in cold weather. They will need suitable cold weather clothing. Club rules require sailors to wear a full wetsuit or drysuit between 1 November and 31 March.
The programme will comprise:
- Faster sailing
- Wind awareness
- Better starts
- Better racing strategy
- Better finishing
- End of season racing
Each session will include theory, on-water exercises and a full de-brief.. There will be a mixture of different coaches.
Sessions will begin at 09:00 (rigged and ready) and be over by 13:00.
Parents need to be willing to help out running the tea bar, providing extra safety cover on windy days or locking up the Club at the end of the day.
There will be a charge of £60 to cover coaching expenses for all six training days. Sailors are expected to turn up for all sessions, but it is accepted that school commitments may affect this. There is no payment option for individual sessions.
There are 15 people coming.
