Dun Laoghaire Youth Laser Coaching Programme: Autumn / Winter 2019
The next coaching is on November (3, 10, 17, 24) âŹ120
The Dun Laoghaire Youth Laser training program will be run as a collaboration between RSGYC and NYC and once again we are fortunate to have two excellent local coaches head up the program: Conor OâBeirne will be running the 4.7âs and we have Nicole Hemeryck on the Radials.
We intend grouping sailors to maintain a coach-to-sailor ratio of around six and expect to have two to three 4.7 groups and one group of radials. A group of up to 20 sailors will allow for âbig fleetâ coaching and also bring a social aspect to the program. Click here to sign up online.
