World Sailing Women's Training Clinics


World Sailing opens registrations for women's coaching, officiating and instructor clinics

World Sailing is inviting Member National Authorities (MNAs), Events, Class Associations and Sailing Clubs to register for training courses designed to broaden the skills of women in sailing as part of this year’s Steering the Course global women’s sailing festival.

Courses and clinics will be funded by World Sailing and available to Member National Authorities (MNAs), Events, Class Associations and Sailing Clubs.

The coaching pathway supports participants to take the first steps towards becoming an instructor or build on existing experience to be a sailing coach. Each course will teach how to safely prepare boats and equipment, develop sailing skills, tactics and strategy, while also helping to set performance goals and training plans for sailors at all levels.

The Race Official Clinics are intended to introduce the different disciplines to countries where there is no formal Race Officiating Certification and provides a ground level for improving their Race Management and Judging.
