Upcoming RYA training
** New Wingsurfing**
Week commencing 17 August
We are very excited to be able to offer club members the chance of some wingsurfing instruction. Initially are offering Junior beginner sessions for those 11+ and some adult sessions too. There is a whole RYA scheme of levels and stages and if there is enough interest, we may be able to extend our offering. Tuition will take place in the Millpond using club equipment. Please note that this is Wingsurfing - and not Wingfoiling.

There will be an RYA Stage 2 running over various weekends in September - more information for booking next week.
I am also hoping to be able to offer some Adult training in the autumn again more information will be available soon.
