Open Coaching and Traveller Events for 2004

The aim for 2004 onwards is to integrate the Open Coaching programme with the different traveller series, with a coaching session on the Saturday and a Traveller event on the Sunday. Experience has shown that combining open coaching with traveller events, dramatically improves attendance at the traveller, sometimes doubling the turnout. We need eight or more events in each zone from April onwards with the final two events in October/November. For the coaching session, the Mirror Class will organise top qualified coaches, handle entry forms and finance. In return for providing facilities and coach boats, all home club boats get free coaching, with visitors being charged £15 or £20 to help defray costs. The club would run the Sunday traveller and charge in the normal way.

Benefits:

Best Dates? Please avoid the Zone Squad Coaching sessions, as the zone squad sailors normally like to attend the traveller events and most of our coaches will be occupied. There is no problem clashing with the National Squad sessions, as these sailors tend to concentrate on major championships. The traveller event can be run in conjunction with club racing or together with another class, as long as the Mirrors can be given a separate start and two, preferably three races.
