Junior Training July 2005Junior Training Application Form This year the Committee has decided to run its own Junior Training Course at the Club from Monday 4th July to Friday 22nd July. They view the Club’s Junior Training Course as an integral part of the sailing activities for their juniors. The Committee wishes to place its emphasis on juniors owning their own boats, joining in with other juniors in organised sailing activities and racing throughout the season, while learning their basic sailing skills on the Club’s Junior Training Course. It is hoped that parents will come down to the club during this three weeks to help with all aspects of the course. Juniors will have to provide a boat (or a place in a boat) to participate on the Junior Training Course. Most types of boats are suitable for junior training once they are seaworthy. It is not necessary for parents to spend a lot of money buying a boat for Junior Training. It is only when juniors reach a certain racing level that parents need to upgrade their boats if they wish to race competitively on the open meeting circuit. Both Gerry Ryan (Tel 01 4947199) and myself (Tel: 01 4936092, Mob: 087 2621616) are available to assist and advise parents if they wish to purchase a boat for their children for Junior Training or if any parents wish to sell a junior boat. The number of places available on the Club’s Junior Training course will be 30. Places will be allocated on a “first come, first served” basis on receipt of a completed application form with deposit of €30. The length of the ISA level 1 and 2 courses is two weeks, commencing on 4th July. A third week is optional for juniors who want more practice. The length of the ISA level 3 and 4 courses is three weeks, commencing on 4th July. The total cost of the two week ISA level 1 and 2 courses is €180 and the three week ISA level 3 and 4 courses is €270. As club members are running this voluntarily, please assist by getting your application form in A.S.A.P. Junior Training Application Form Peter Dolan |
