Sailing Youth Scheme

The certificates within the RYA Youth Sailing Scheme are a significant achievement. Instructors sign off each skill as you complete it and, once completed, the certificate can be of use in other areas of your study or activities such as PE at school, or the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. The RYA runs a programme called OnBoard, which enables young people to start sailing and windsurfing through their school's PE activities.

Here at Edgbaston Watersports we have been awarded OnBoard status and can offer this programme.

The Youth Scheme is usually completed in small dinghies suitable for the size of the children.

This 2-day course follows the RYA youth sailing scheme. Whilst with us you will be given in depth tuition by expert instructors and taught the basic elements of sailing in small, simple to use boats. The course aims to give you the confidence to progress and have fun with a sport that you can enjoy for years to come.
