RS400 Nationals - Would you like Weds pm coaching?
RS400 / 4000 Nationals Sailor,
Would you like Weds pm coaching? We need your feedback
In recent years, the RS400 National Championships have featured optional informal coaching, the afternoon before racing begins. The coaching has covered elements of boat set-up and handling for newer sailors, blowing away the cobwebs for rusty sailors, a chance to get to know and ask about the nuances of the venue and the reassurance of practice with a RIB on hand.
We didn't originally include this with our new 4-day format this year, but have since been asked if we will run it, especially following feedback from the 'awesome day' that Sam Knight and Chris Bownes ran at Notts County recently.
We'd now like to find out if there is sufficient demand to run the coaching this year. If there is, we will aim to recruit a coach.
If viable, the session will run from c1-5pm on Wednesday, 9th September, at £25/boat, starting with a shore discussion followed by on-the-water training.
Please email [email protected] with the following:
Are you coming to the Nationals - Definitely / Maybe / No

Would you take part in Weds coaching - Definitely / Maybe / No thanks

Sally
