The EYC sailing school has published its schedule, but a new addition for club members is a Saturday afternoon race team schedule for youth that we have secured a coach for if there is interest (cost will be reasonable and determined by how much interest there is). Please respond to me if you think you have teens that would like to get some coaching on race techniques and competitive sailing.
And the fun does not stop there. The Alberta Sailing Association (ASA) is hoping to get more people interested in becoming race officials. This is a great opportunity if you're interested in competition and would like to participate in the judging or as a race official. There is a short online course you would take.
What are the benefits of any of these undertakings? Besides joining an elite sport that allows travel across the province, the country and internationally as a competitor, it would give you a chance to earn scholarships if you plan to attend a University on the coastal waters of Canada or the US.
As a Race Official you get the chance to participate in events, should you rise to that level and see the world from the deck of a boat. but even just locally you have an opportunity to travel to local regattas and participate, rather than just be a spectator.
Think about it and if you would like to get more information, contact me at [email protected], your local ASA board member.
