Normandy Beach Yacht Club
JUNIOR SAILING 2010

Head Instructor Craig Hewit presents the Opti Pram First Place Award
 

Welcome to Junior Sailing 2010! Our program begins on Monday, June 28th and will continue for eight weeks, concluding on Thursday, August 19th.

Our objective is to provide an enjoyable, comprehensive program of sailing instruction. Clinics include three levels of Optimist Pram sailing as well as advanced racing clinics for Lasers and Club 420s. Participants will be placed in groups according to their level of ability, at the discretion of the Head Instructor. The instructors will encourage team spirit through drills, relay races and group sailing activities. Emphasis is placed on realizing each junior sailor's potential, fostering self-confidence and promoting competitive sportsmanship.

The Junior BBYRA Schedule of regattas and interclubs will be given to each sailor and posted on the NBYC bulletin board. These are considered to be an integral part of instruction for the Intermediate and Advanced students and provide the opportunity to competitively race against sailors from other yacht clubs of similar proficiency and experience. Our instructors will accompany sailors to all of these events.

We will be hosting our 9th Junior Sailors' Interclub on Monday, August 2nd with Club 420s, Sunfish and Lasers.

Our popular Sunday afternoon races are another opportunity for junior sailors to practice technique, teamwork and sportsmanship. Our remarkable teaching staff is looking forward to another sensational summer of fair weather, gentle breezes, and great sailing!
