British Youth Sailing 2024 Regional Junior Championships is a series of regattas all over the country that form a festival of sailing for youngsters. Many South Staffs sailors have attended this fun filled event other recent years and hopefully this year will be no exception, there is something for everyone whatever your sailing ability…certainly an event not to be missed!

This year the event is being held at Carsington SC as well as great club facilities and wonderful surroundings with lots to do.

A fun packed programme of games with aims will be the focus of The OnBoard Fun Fleet as this is an ‘event within an event’ as part of this festival celebration of all junior sailing. Its aim is to give the youngest or most inexperienced OnBoard sailors their first taste of travelling to an event, sailing at a different location and having fun whilst making new friends and learning new skills.

Although featuring some fun races, it is not racing and lots of prizes are awarded in line with the OnBoard character attributes, such as displaying teamwork, determination and communication. It’s ‘Games with aims’.

Meanwhile, the Regatta Fleet for coached racing is for more experienced youngsters who can sail around a triangle course and want to start to improve their racing skills. It is a brilliant learning experience.

The event is still also an indicator for those who do want to apply for BYS Regional Training Groups so there will be ‘serious racing’ Championship Fleets for each of the RYA recognised junior classes, both days.

Don’t have your own boat? No problem… If we can gauge early interest from SSSC Y&J’s keen to attend we can try and book the regional fleets for some of our juniors to use, these will be snapped up quickly so please get involved soon.

We are once again looking to regain the award for most sailors from one club again this year, so come along and #JoinTheAdventure

If you would like to register interest in your junior(s) taking part in either one or both of the days, please sign up to this event and also indicate on TeamApp events if you are likely to attend, or contact Andy or Bev if you have any questions.
