The programme is focused on building confidence on the water and teaching the basics of water safety. The emphasis is on fun and safety!
The NYC will run 6 sessions on Wednesdays (Dates May 7, 14, 21, 28 and June 4, 11). The session starts with registration at 5.30 and finishes at 7.30pm.
There will be courses for age groups as below:
o Nippers: 6 to 8 years
o Nippers+: 8 to 11 years

Summer Courses 2025 – REGISTRATIONS ARE NOW OPEN!
The Junior Committee is happy to announce that the Summer Courses 2025 are now open for booking for all NYC memberâs children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews and if places are still available, friends. Our mission is to teach sailing and seamanship in a fun, safe environment while inspiring a lifelong love for our Dublin Bay waters and the Corinthian spirit.
The booking will remain open until midnight on Monday 26 May 2025.
As with previous years, we will be running the full suite of IS levels and are additionally offering some Performance custom courses called 'Skills for Gold'. Places will be allocated on a first-come/first-served basis. We intend to offer all courses published, but this will depend on demand and minimum numbers per course.
If you are unsure which course is right for your young sailor, you can check the ISA website for a description of the standard courses by clicking here: Dinghy, Keelboat & Catamaran Sailing (List of courses under the Course Syllabi heading)
Feedback from parents has told us that demand for specific courses is hard to predict running into the summer. For this reason, we have decided that we will not cap the number of places per course at the point of booking. This will allow us to respond more flexibly to your needs and scale-up to meet demand where possible.
What this means for you is: If there has not been sufficient interest in a course you have booked or if a course has been oversubscribed, we will be in touch before 19 May 2025 (within 1 week of booking closing) to offer you an alternative course or a full refund.
