Wing Cadets

Wing Cadets is our Sunday afternoon training for youths and juniors aged 8 to 17. We have a great range of boats, to support all abilities, from Oppies, Picos and Toppers through to the more advanced double handed boats, such as Fevas, Lasers and Visions.

Session Times:  14:00 till 16:30, 30 minutes of rigging & launching time is built into this and we ask that you arrive promptly to enable the best use of time on the water. We are now asking you to ensure your children arrive dressed, ready to go sailing, as we have been advised by the RYA and government that changing room facilities remain an area of increased transition risk.

The Price: £120 per child for the whole season (12 sessions this year).

Your Arrival, Sign-in & Collection: On arrival kids should be changed, in wetsuits and where possible have their own buoyancy aid. If they were in Wing Cadets last year, they must supply their own buoyancy aid. Parents will need to sign their children in at the training room door at 14:00. The children will then be taken by their instructor to their area and go sailing. Parents must collect their children & sign them out in the car park next to the training room at 16:30 when the sessions end.

Groups: Groups will not mix during sessions. We would usually ask that parents remain onsite for the session, however should you wish to leave site please make the instructor in charge of the day aware of this.

For Non-Members: You must be a member of Silver Wing Sailing Club to take part in Wing Cadets. If you are not already a member please contact membership@silverwingsc.co.uk to discuss our membership packages.
