Junior and Youth Fleet Training
The Royal Lymington Yacht Club winter coaching programme for Junior and Youth sailors is now underway. Our year-round programme includes coaching, training and racing for seven fleets, all of which are on the RYA Pathway. These fleets are Optimist, RS Tera, RS Feva, Laser/ILCA (4.7 and Radial), RS Aero, 420 and 29er, each with a Fleet Captain.
The coaching team runs great sessions with a strong plan under the direction of Head Coach, Hugh Styles (British Sailing Team's Coach of the Year 2019). Winter training will be a mix of on and off water skills, drills and classroom learning carefully designed to deliver maximum benefit and enjoyment to the sailors.
Become a member of the Royal Lymington Yacht Club to benefit from significantly reduced training rates and to be able to hire our Club dinghies and paddleboards.
