The Match Racing Squad is for sailors that are capable of sailing a small keelboat in a team and would like to learn or further develop their match racing skills. 

Participants must have graduated from our Youth Racing Squad or have prior Keelboat experience. 

This course aims to develop match racing skills, polish teamwork and boat handling and to establish teams. Sailors will be guided by experienced match racing coaches and will have a lot of fun. 

Skippers are encouraged to establish teams and register as a team. This needs to be coordinated between the sailors. If you do not have a team but would like to participate, please register or speak to Chelsea and we can assist you to make a team. Individuals are asked to register seperately. 

We would encourage you to include one of our Youth Racing Squad graduates in your team. Our program operates off a mentor structure so please be inclusive of our younger sailors. 

This program will include 16 hours of training and the Sailing Institute Regatta on 4 & 5 September.

RFBYC provides generous assistance to match racing teams representing the Club in events around the World. This program is for sailors preparing for events later in the year such as JESS Match Cup, Colin Mullins Youth Regatta, 2022 Swan River Racing Events or any interstate Match Racing Regattas.

The Sailing Institute Match Racing regatta as a part of this program will be a graded event.
