PRACTICE RACE / TRAINING
ON SATURDAYS
Training are scheduled every Saturday, please e.mail training@lagosyc.org with your
training requirements and we will endeavor to meet them each week.
Reminder of the principles: We will have a practice race each Saturday at 12AM. Subject to wind
conditions. If there is no wind an hour will be spent on "classroom" training.
The intention is to PRACTICE rather than race and the top helms will be advising and assisting
anybody wanting to learn. This is open to all: new crews, old crews, new helms, old helms…
This will also count as a sail for probationary members.

Set of 3 sessions will take place in January (2nd, 3rd & 4th Wednesdays at 7pm): interested
