On the water training

Each weekend will have a specific focus for the group. The sessions will be a mixture of boat handling skills, racing tactics and much more with the goal to build up to a summer of championship racing.

Online talks
Members of the team will receive access to 2 online talks, one from Mark Rushall, a world class sailing coach who has been working with the British Sailing team since 2006 and the other to be confirmed, with exciting names in the pipeline. 

The coaches
Over the last few years the class has built strong bonds with Several coaches. Sammy IJ, George Cousins and Andrew Frost will continue to lead the Training in 2024/25. These specialist coaches will attend each weekend and give insight into their specific strengths.

The cost
We have been even luckier than ever for 2024/25 to again get some EPIC funding from the RS Aero UK Class Association re-investing to support the 2024/25 winter training meaning a large subsidy in cost for those enrolling for the whole series! The cost for the 7 weekends of on water training, 2 online calls will be just £300 per Youth Sailor (U22 on 31/12/24) and just £450 per Adult Sailor. There will also be the opportunity to sign up to individual weekends training for the price of £110 per weekend.
