This program is open to any child ages 9-12. Participation in at least one of our Opti Sailing Camps is a pre-requisite. While we will be learning the rules of racing and learning to sail fast, our focus will be on developing a supportive team environment that is conducive to learning and improving. We will incorporate games and demonstrations while we introduce racing to our youngest sailing team. Sailing is not segregated by gender and everyone is able to compete on a level playing field. *Sailors in the 6th grade and over 120lbs should consider moving up to the Middle School Sailing team, which sails in a larger 2 person dinghy. Practice is 3:30-6 pm, Monday and Wednesday As your sailor progresses there will be opportunities for participation in regatta's or sailboat races. We recognize the importance of trying many things during your child's developmental years so participation in this group will be less strict. That being said, regular participation is one of the secrets to success.
