RYA Assistant Instructor course
Want to help progress your child's sailing skills?
Keen to get involved with ESC's Training programme?
Looking for an opportunity to put something back in to your sport?
Matt Wright (our RYA Training Principal) will be running the RYA Assistant Instructor Course ( AI ) on the weekend of October 12/13 from 0900 to 1700 each day. This course is aimed at parents/grandparents wishing to get involved delivering ESC youth and adult training.
In terms of sailing ability, participants should be able to sail a crewed dinghy around a triangular course in light to medium winds so demonstrating all the points of sailing and tacking and gybing proficiently.
Although this is an official RYA qualification to teach, it is a centre-specific certificate, awarded by ESC as the training centre and valid for five years, renewable after that.
The training weekend will cover the procedures for training at Emsworth Sailing Club, the RYA training schemes (Youth and Adult), the training sequence and the RYA method for tacking and gybing. There will be a mixture of sessions on and off the water.
The cost of the training will be £40 for the weekend and there will need to be a minimum of 6 adults signed up to make this event happen.
