Course information
This course has passed.
COURSE DETAILS
COST: $250
Are you not quite ready to move up to the next level of Tackers? Want to practice your skills a little more before moving into a new syllabus? Or simply want to spend more time on the water in a less structured environment without a set curriculum? Then this is for you!
Designed to give kids the opportunity to spend more time on the water in an unstructured environment, with a focus on games and fun as opposed to a set Tackers syllabus. Kids can get their confidence up by getting water time in optis and have the opportunity to meet other kids of all ages and experience levels.
Length of Course
Weekly on Tuesdays from 4-6pm.
Pre-Requisites
Completed or are currently enrolled in Tackers 2.
Where to from here
Depending on what level of tackers your child has completed we recommend they either continue to do the tackers courses or if they have passed tackers 3, they can then move onto Minnow and Cadet Squad, were they are coached to race their own boat and all things looking after a boat.
Program Focus:
Following the structure and instruction in learn-to-sail programs. 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.
During the Program sailors are encouraged to take part in freesail activity, and to trial a variety of boats, boards, and other club related activity through age appropriate design.
