Volunteering

The group is always in need of volunteers, so if you are interested in helping, please contact our Chairman to find out how to get involved.

At Neptune we have a range of dinghies to ensure the development of our sailors:

Toppers

Fevas

420s

Omegas

Wayfarers

 

 

This SWSA youth group is a vibrant and exciting youth sailing group, started in the 1960’s and run by volunteers.

The youth group’s aims are to provide fun, safe, sail training programmes for young people, with the objective of turning members into independent dinghy sailors with skills that can be enjoyed for the rest of their lives.

Many of our young sailors go on to become active racers in local clubs, or join one of the RYA Zone squads. Others decide to stay on as helpers, many of whom go on to become instructors with our support.

The group is based at Woolverstone Marina, and operates 3 evenings a week:
