NEWS UPDATE
We are excited to be running a two day course for GIRLS in the holidays! This is open to all sailors who have previously done a RCSF course at Manly and will be a great opportunity for the girls within the sailing club to get to know each other better whilst having fun on and off the water. The sessions will be tailored so that every ability has the chance to improve.
Dates: Thursday 14th and Friday 15th January
Time: 10am-3pm each day, with a shared dinner on the Thursday
The price for the course is $100 for the two days of sailing or $60 to do one of the two days. This cost includes dinner and the use of RCSF boats.
Please register online or email sailing@rcsf.org.nz if you have any questions.

holiday courses - January 2021
Courses will include all levels of ability so sailors can do any of the dates offered. During the program we will spend time both in small groups of sailors with similar ability and big group activities. This will give everyone a chance to meet each other while also improving their own sailing skills.

The dates available are:
11th - 13th January
18th - 20th January
25th - 27th January
The price of the program will be $180 (this will include boat charter). Sailors will need to bring lunch, snacks and a drink.

LEARN TO SAIL. HAVE FUN.
|
The principle aim of the Russell Coutts Sailing Foundation is to introduce participants to the joys of sailing and to help each sailor to grow in character and personal confidence.
The Foundation's various programmes incorporate coaching of sailing and racing skills, but also include non-competitive, fun and social events both on and off the water, for young sailors and their families. |
The Foundation recognises that, while some participants may go on to achieve success at national and international level, this should not be used as the sole measure of the success for the programme.
Rather, the main measures of success will be the attraction and retention of young sailors in the sport, who have previously had little or no sailing experience. |
