There will be 3 days of Cadet Race Training and a Mini Race series at the end of the Easter holidays for 11+ year old boys and girls.  The training will be progressive and it is hoped that Cadets can attend all three days, however, less is still fine. The training will cater for all abilities, but the minimum requirement is to be able to sail a beat, reach and run.

We also welcome new Cadet members; a great way to meet new friends, while training and having a good time.

Dates:

Thursday 12th April 7.30 – 8.15  Training Room – Briefing and a recap on Rules, Starting and Safety

Friday 13th April – Meeting/briefing (changed)  9.00 am – On the water 9.30am

Saturday 14th April – Meeting/briefing (changed)  9.30 am – On the water 10.00am

Sunday 15th April – Meeting/briefing (changed) 10.30 am – On the water 11.00am

Reserve the dates for a great start to the season.

Parental help will be most appreciated to help on ‘Polly’ with Safety and Scoring etc.
