    Junior Week is back for 2025! It will be a non-residential 4-days for 8 to 16 year olds running from Monday 18th August until Thursday 21st August 2025.

    The aim of Junior Week is to provide an opportunity for children to have fun, enjoy sailing and related activities with other young people. The week is suitable for beginners and experienced sailors (RYA Level 4 and beyond) alike.

    Children can arrive from 8am, but must be at the Club by 9am every day. The afternoon activities will finish at 4.30pm, children can be collected after this time. All children must be collected by 6pm.

    Food and snacks are not included, please send a packed lunch and suitable snacks for your child.

    The cost of this year's 4-day Junior Week is:

    •   OSC Members - £120
    •   Non-members - £180

    On Wednesday evening from 5pm, we will be having a BBQ. Juniors, parents and volunteers are all invited to this event, there's no additional charge for this, please let us know if you'll be attending so we can cater for the right number.

    In addition to enjoyment and learning new skills or improving existing ones, safety is of paramount importance during Otley Sailing Club courses and events. Water sports can be hazardous by their nature and participants, parents and guardians must accept that there are risks and the inevitable bumps and scrapes which happen during the thrills and spills of fast moving activities. To manage the risks so far as we are able, Otley Sailing Club has a 'safe system of work':

    •   We use RYA qualified Instructors.
    •   We teach to RYA recommendations and guidelines.
    •   We have robust management and safety systems which have been inspected by approved bodies such as the RYA.
    •   We will modify/cancel an activity if we feel that there are unmanageable risks.
    •   All Instructors have undergone a DBS Check and we have a dedicated team of helpers. We have first aiders on site at all times.

    Please note that:

    •   All children must have a wetsuit.
    •   Wetboots or neoprene beach shoes need to be worn (or trainers that you don't mind getting wet). Crocs or similar are not suitable as they tend to be too slippy and fall off kids feet too easily.
    •   Children must attend all 4 days as partial attendance affects group dynamics.
    •   Children are not allowed mobile phones, tablets, laptops or other electronic items during Junior Week.
    •   Otley Sailing Club retains the right to adjust the programme or cancel the event if not enough volunteers are forthcoming to help run Junior Week.

    • 06 Sep 2025
    • Otley Sailing Club
    Join waitlist

    We're very excited to be working once again in conjunction with Everyday Lifestyle to offer SUP Yoga Sessions at Otley! The sessions will be run by accomplished ASI instructors with many years experience in stand up paddling and Yoga.

    The lessons are 1 hour long, for a maximum of 6 paddlers. They are suitable for adults (over 16 years) who have completed a previous beginners class, or who are experienced paddleboarders, and for Yoga enthusiasts (for whom paddleboarding experience is not essential).

    For those not familiar with the lake at Otley, it's an enclosed flat water location that provides a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere full of natural beauty and wildlife.

    Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the lesson starting.

    What equipment do you provide & what do I need to bring?

    You'll need to bring a swimsuit to go under the wetsuit, towel and footwear, either water shoes or old trainers.

    All equipment will be provided - Wetsuits, buoyancy aids, paddles and a range of paddle boards with leash. We have a range of boards O'Shea, Starboard, Red Paddle and STX.


    Also today, for those new to paddleboarding, we have morning and afternoon Beginners Stand Up Paddleboard Training Sessions.

    For links to all of our upcoming SUP beginners sessions, SUP intermediate sessions and SUP Yoga sessions please visit: Stand Up Paddleboard Training

    Is the Intermediate course the right course for me?

    If you can both stand up and steer reasonably well then the intermediate course would be good for you. Rather than focusing on the basics, the intermediate course teaches you how to paddle more effectively so you can go faster or further with less effort and also how to do better turns. On the other hand, if you are not yet confident standing and steering then the beginners course would be best for you.
