INTERMEDIATE COURSES
Development Program - O'PEN SKIFF
ABOUT THE COURSES
The Spring 2019 O'pen Skiff Development Program has evolved into two groups, each with slightly different core objectives. We now have two options available for your sailor at this stage in their sailing development; the O'pen Skiff Social group, and the O'pen Skiff Racer group.
Each of these courses are suitable for those who have successfully completed stages one, two and three in the RCSF LTS Program, and want to further their experience and enjoyment on the water. This is also the right choice for returning Development Skiff sailors. The division between the courses however, recognises not all new sailors develop a passion for racing at the same rate - which is totally fine!
Sailors entering this course should provide their own boat and equipment although we will do our best to make available charters to those who are still in the market for their first O'pen Skiff. Please do remember our charter policy for use outside course sessions, listed under our Ts&Cs, which stipulates a finite number of charter uses in fairness to new sailors coming through.
In certain circumstances, the RCSF may approach and award scholarship(s) to one or more sailor(s) in this course. This will be on a case-by-case basis and include boat use and course fees for one season.
PREREQUISITES
Entrants typically enter the Development Program - O'pen Skiff following the RCSF Learn to Sail Three program.

O'PEN SKIFF SOCIAL
The O'pen Skiff Social group prioritises the important social aspects of sailing, and this group will typically sail in fairer weather with less pressures on your child at this important development stage. If your sailor is a dolphin chaser or adventurer on the water, this is highly likely the course for them! This course also operates at the same time as Club Sailing on a Sunday afternoon, so although these sailors won't be taking part in Club Racing, they can feel included in the Club activity and enjoy some down time with their other sailing friends. COURSE CONTENT (some or all of the following)
COST Early bird registration fee - $245 Standard registration fee (after Friday 27th Sept.) - $295 Charter fee - $140 (7 course sessions) |
O'PEN SKIFF RACER
The O'pen Skiff Racer is ideal for juniors who have mastered the basic sailing skills and who can't wait to beat their friends around a race course! It's the right course for sailors aiming at developing the confidence and competence required to improve from an intermediate club level to a regatta race level and these sailors will be aiming for entry into the final squad offered by the RCSF. Participants in this program will be given guidance to attend pre-selected away from home regattas throughout the season and it's expected that they are supported to attend these events. KEY EVENTS

DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM - WINDSURFER
ABOUT THE COURSE
This is an intermediate windsurfer course, ideal for participants who are keen to develop their skillset and perhaps, down the track, move towards a board racing level. Continuing on from the RCSF Learn to Windsurf course, this program will seek to reinforce the skills and techniques learned in the previous course, and introduce some new theory and content.
Participants can expect to look at new concepts such as apparent wind sailing, and learn crucial windsurfing techniques such as efficient pumping, planing and using the harness.
Although some sailors will develop competitive streaks, there will still be a focus on enjoyment and non-conventional activities and drills, with the key objective being to provide these sailors with the confidence to take part in club racing independently.
Sailors entering this course should provide their own board and equipment although we will do our best to make available charters to those who are still in the market for their first windsurfer. Please do remember our charter policy for use outside course sessions, listed under our Ts&Cs, which stipulates a finite number of charter uses in fairness to new sailors coming through.
PREREQUISITES
Entrants must display basic windsurfing knowledge and competency, or have successfully completed the RCSF Learn to Windsurf course. Participant's shall also be members of Manly Sailing Club to enter this course.

Charter fee - $180 (9 course sessions)
COURSE CONTENT
This is an intermediate windsurfer course, ideal for participants who are keen to develop their skillset and perhaps, down the track, move towards a board racing level. Continuing on from the RCSF Learn to Windsurf course, this program will seek to reinforce the skills and techniques learned in the previous course, and introduce some new theory and content.
Participants can expect to look at new concepts such as apparent wind sailing, and learn crucial windsurfing techniques such as efficient pumping, planing and using the harness.
Although some sailors will develop competitive streaks, there will still be a focus on enjoyment and non-conventional activities and drills, with the key objective being to provide these sailors with the confidence to take part in club racing independently.
Sailors entering this course should provide their own board and equipment although we will do our best to make available charters to those who are still in the market for their first windsurfer. Please do remember our charter policy for use outside course sessions, listed under our Ts&Cs, which stipulates a finite number of charter uses in fairness to new sailors coming through.
PREREQUISITES
Entrants must display basic windsurfing knowledge and competency, or have successfully completed the RCSF Learn to Windsurf course. Participant's shall also be members of Manly Sailing Club to enter this course.
COST
Early bird registration fee - $315
Standard registration fee (after Friday 27th September) - $365

PERFORMANCE SQUAD
ABOUT THE COURSE
Courses offered at this level are the final step within the RCSF for a junior sailor's progression through to high performance youth class sailing. Sailors selected for the Performance Squad will display strong passion and drive at all times to excel in the sport of sailing and demonstrate immense dedication to succeed in their goals.
These select sailors will typically be in their third or fourth year with the Foundation, and be actively building their whole sailing package; including fitness, nutrition, technical knowledge, tactics and weather awareness. It's expected these sailors train outside of session times, and should be aiming at 6-10 hours of on water time in their training phase.
Sailors will typically be invited to enter this squad, in any class suitable in fulfilling the objectives of the program, although there is benefit to these sailors focussing on the classes recommended below;
Please contact us for more information on courses offered at this level for the following classes; RS Feva, 420, Nacra 15 or RSX.
Sailors in the Performance Squad shall in most instances, provide their own boats and equipment. There are however a limited number of yachts available for charter should your sailor be entering a new class.
In order to graduate from the Performance Squad, members will have spent between 3-6 months in their chosen youth class and display good sportsmanship on and off the water, as well as actively assist the development of younger sailors in the program. They must show initiative in their sailing schedules and take ownership of their season planning.
PREREQUISITES
Entrants typically join the Performance Squad following participation for more than a full season in the RCSF Development Program or equivalent level. During that time the sailor will be identified as showing heightened interest in pursuing National and International success. Sailors will usually be individually approached and offered a place in the Performance Squad.
