Summer Courses 2021; Covid-19 Update

The NYC is restarting its Summer Junior training programme with 2 week long half day clinics for Optimists, Toppers and Lasers commencing Monday 7th June 2021.

These Clinics are for children of full and family members only.
They will be run by advanced instructors and are limited to 6 participants to ensure

compliance with our national public health advice. The cost is €300 per Clinic (it is also possible to charter a Club Topper or a Club Optimist)

Summer courses/clinics registration are now open for Summer Courses 1 and 2.

We will have a waiting list system, so if you don’t get into your desired clinic, please make sure to put your name on the waiting list.

Registration for courses 3, 4 and 5 will go live in a few weeks. We are not posting all courses at this time due to the changing conditions with the pandemic and the question on whether racing events will or will not be taking place.
