Course Overview

This squad aims to build on skills learned in OutThere 3 or Youth Skills and focuses on advanced sailing skills required for racing.

Course Prerequisites

  • 2023/2024 season RBYC Member $107 pa (compulsory for club programs and invoiced after enrollment)
  • Water confident
  • 12-18 years-old
  • Skills, knowledge and experience gained in OutThere 3/ Youth Skills or equivalent experince 

Who should do this course?

This course is designed for participants who have completed OutThere 3/ Youth Skills and are looking to continue their sailing journey beyond the learn to sail programs.

What About a boat?

This course will be conducted in the Club’s Quest dinghies. A rental fee of $300 pa is charged for use of the boat 

Course Outcome

Unlike the OutThere program, Youth Racing Squad is designed to facilitate ongoing learning and provide a more individualised progression pathway. Without the restrictions of tight curriculums and timelines, this group is designed to foster sailors into racing up to a state championship level. Sailors do not pass or fail this course but rather continue to get support tailored to the demands of racing.

It is our aim that after a few sessions in the youth racing squad, sailors will be competent enough to partake in the RBYC Sunday afternoon coaches racing and eventually confident enough to race as an RBYC race squad at regattas around the bay including the Stonehaven Cup.
