King George Sailing Club

RYA Stage 3 or above? Then the KGSC Cadet Club is for you!

The KGSC Cadet Club is the Junior and Youth group of KGSC, run mainly by parents and guardians, offering development, coaching, and racing for juniors and youth aged 8 to 18 years. 

The young sailors must be part of a family membership to take part. Sessions must be booked in advance so we can plan our safety cover.

Cadet Club takes place on Saturday mornings from 9:30am – 12:30pm throughout the year. Additional days sometimes happen in school holidays at an extra cost.

Cadet Club sessions aim to give young people a chance to access the water safely and develop their sailing skills. We broadly work on a journey towards racing skills, and the skills that will be needed to pass the RYA Dinghy Instructor Pre Assessment Test. The sessions are mixed ability, as we only have one instructor, and rely on safety support from parents. Each session will take account of the weather and the needs of the particular children attending.

We have a mix of Toppers, Teras and ILCAs with the occasional Optimist from time to time.

We have club boats to hire if you don’t have your own.
