Junior Training

The Club provides a summer sailing course each year for Junior members of our club. Our principal aim is to provide an enjoyable learning experience for young people within a friendly social framework.

If our adult sailing activities seem like fun the junior sailing programme is jam-packed full of everything our young sailors need to succeed. Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club pioneered junior sailing in Dublin and our first junior course kicked off way back in 1964. A lot and yet little has changed since then.

The clubs Junior Committee spend the year planning all the water activity for the Juniors of the club. This years course is scheduled to run from 3rd July 2023 for a 3 week period with a number of scheduled junior sailing Sunday's both before the course and after the course. The booking form for the course can be found here.

The junior sailing programme in Clontarf Yacht and Boat Club is offered to all children of Family Members. Details about membership for the club can be found here.
