Volvo Champion Club Regatta 2012

I hope everyone is enjoying a weekend off or perhaps rediscovering their local sailing club?

Last Saturday saw the Annual RYA Scotland Volvo Champion Club Regatta hosted this year at Loch Tummel SC. The event which is firmly aimed at encouraging club level junior sailors to take their first steps into travelling to regional and national level events comprised a morning of coaching for the sailors whilst RYA Pathway Development Officer Adam McGovern met the parents and gave a comprehensive introduction to the RYA Pathway classes and Junior and Youth Racing in Scotland and the UK.  In the afternoon three highly competitive inter-club races were held in the Optimist, Topper and RS Feva Classes.

Overall club winners this year were Loch Tummel SC securing victory by one point despite a very strong challenge by Helensburgh SC.  Read the RYA report here and look out for the full results inclusding individual sailors positions on www.lochtummelsc.org.
