Preference is given to children who have not previously attended JSW, but sign up quickly as spaces go quickly. There are 39 places available.

These sessions are open to WOSC members ONLY. Any friends/family that are not included in your family membership would be a safety and a safeguarding issue and we could lose our RYA accredited training status and there will no more training for anyone!

If you have temporary guardianship of a child (such as fostering) then please contact the training secretary training@wosc.org.uk to discuss options for inclusion.

IMPORTANT:

JSW is every day for a whole working week.

A parent/guardian MUST stay at the club at all times.

Please only apply if you can come every day. Please do not come if you have not signed up.

Your child will need a buoyancy aid designed for sailing that fits them. Please do not use adult buoyancy aids or those for other sports.

Parents are requested to undertake one duty per family over the week, to support WOSC.

JSW is free, but donations to WOSC's junior sailing fund are welcome. The JSF provides grants to our junior and youth sailors to further their sailing careers.

If there are special circumstances relating to health or family arrangements that limit your ability to participate, or need changes to the above, please contact the Sailing School Admin to discuss. We always do our best to get everyone on the water.
