We help kids fall in love with sailing and racing, and inspire the next generation of sailors.
We make sailing exciting, inclusive and rewarding for every child, creating a nurturing home for single-handed junior sailing where girls and boys alike can belong, thrive and progress.
At Balmoral Sailing Club we sail with:
Bravery: We have a go, try new things, challenge ourselves, and don’t give up. If we capsize or make mistakes, we get back up and keep going.
Seamanship: We sail safely and care for ourselves, each other, our boats and the environment, both on and off the water.
Commitment: We show up, do our best. We take initiative and lead by example.
Expect all sailors, coaches, and parents to model these values at all times.
Our season In partnership with Balmoral Sailing Club, we're excited to share the refreshed Junior Sailing Program for 2026/27. We've redesigned the program to provide more sailing opportunities, greater flexibility for families, and a clearer pathway for young sailors to develop a lifelong love of sailing and racing.
