SUMMARY:ILCA 4 New Year Clinic (Valencia)
DESCRIPTION:Join SailCoach for an exciting six-day ILCA 4 New Year Clinic at our Valencia SailBase\, designed to provide a platform for talented club sailors aged 15 and over who have been active in their national youth sailing circuits or Optimists sailors looking to transition to the ILCA Class. \nWhat’s involved\nThe clinic is designed to help improve boat preparation with the most recent developments in the class\, sail settings\, and advanced boat handling skills\, including roll-tacking\, roll-gybing\, and mark roundings. The ILCA 4 New Year Clinic will look hard at developing upwind and downwind speed with extensive video analysis. \nAt SailCoach\, we have a strong belief in the multi-national training concept\, which we pioneered many years ago. As a result\, this intensive one-week training program offers sailors the chance to challenge themselves against competitors from various countries. Additionally\, it provides young sailors with a unique opportunity to receive coaching from highly experienced ILCA dinghy coaches\, some of whom have been part of the Team SailCoach squad at multiple Olympic events. \nThe clinic’s daily schedule will combine classroom lessons with on the water exercises offering healthy competition and is followed up with a debrief of tactical and strategy situations. Sailors will receive individual attention both on the water and with video analysis. \nA typical day\nDepending on the weather conditions\, the day will start with a physical training warm-up session\, sometimes before breakfast and sometimes after. These physical training sessions will be conducted by our in-house fitness coaches\, with care being taken that the exercises are suitable for that age group and to ensure the safety of the sailors taking part in the sessions. This will be followed by a briefing on what the coach plans for the days sailing sessions\, pointing out the areas where the coach intends to focus\, taking into consideration the prevailing weather conditions. \nAfter lunch\, there will be a debrief on the morning session\, followed by a briefing for the afternoon session. Depending on the venue and the weather forecast\, the coach may decide to run one longer session instead of two shorter sessions. \nThe fitness coach will take control of the group again after sailing\, running a cool down session which sometimes involves an ice bath or a swim. Again\, depending on the venue\, there will be a debrief on the days activities either before or after dinner. There will be some time set aside in the evening to relax before bed… the next day\, it starts all over again! \nSailCoach hopes you’ll be as excited as we are about this ILCA 4 New Year Clinic. You will meet people from around the world who\, like you\, are “mad about sailing” and will become life-long friends in our sport. \nProgram:\n27th December 2025: (arrival day)\nArrive into Valencia Airport (VLC) between 08:00 hrs and 22:00 hrs and be met by one of SailCoach’s friendly staff.

SUMMARY:March TY BaseCamp Programme - Valencia
DESCRIPTION:SailCoach TY BaseCamp – March 2025\, Valencia\, Spain\nSailCoach’s TY BaseCamp has become a long standing and highly respected program among Irish families\, known for providing a unique and transformative experience during Transition Year. Trusted by parents and loved by the students who take part\, it’s widely regarded as a “must” for any young sailor looking to make the most of this special school year. Held at our Valencia SailBase\, the October 2025 edition offers an ideal opportunity to build racing skills\, grow in confidence\, and live independently in a supportive environment. The program is also open to international sailors who wish to join for an extended block of structured training alongside their Irish peers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile originally designed with Irish TY students in mind\, the program is also open to motivated young sailors from other countries who are eager to train alongside their peers. We typically welcome sailors aged 15 to 16\, with a focus on ILCA 4 and ILCA 6 racing. \n\nWhy Join A TY BaseCamp?\nWe understand that many TY students would like to use this flexible school year to advance their sailing skills\, work toward selection for the Irish Sailing Academy\, or simply gain life experience away from home in a structured\, supportive environment.\n\nThe TY BaseCamp is designed to provide a comprehensive experience:\n\nHigh-level ILCA training\nExposure to full-time athlete routines\nSupportive mentoring by professional coaches\nDevelopment of independence\, discipline\, and self-confidence\nAge-appropriate fitness training to support overall well-being\n\nWhether a sailor aims to make the leap to national or international competition or is simply seeking personal growth\, the TY BaseCamp provides the foundation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre-Entry Experience\n\n\n\n\nThe TY BaseCamp is designed for sailors who are highly motivated to improve their racing skills and take a meaningful step toward national level performance. While most participants sail ILCA Dinghies\, we also welcome those transitioning from other youth classes such as Topper\, 29er\, or 420. To ensure safety and training values\, sailors should be confident sailing in 16 to 20 knots of wind on the open sea. We value varied sailing pathways and experiences in experience and background—what matters most is a shared commitment to progress and a passion for dinghy racing.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSailCoach’s Coaching Philosophy\nAt SailCoach\, we believe sailing is more than a sport\, and it’s a transformative journey. Our TY BaseCamp focuses not only on sailing performance but also on character development\, resilience\, and life readiness.\n\n\nWe aim to:\nInspire young people through a structured yet adventurous program\nSupport the development of confidence\, leadership\, and decision-making\nEquip students with skills that will serve them well in sport\, school\, and life\n\n\nWe measure success by both sailing progression and personal growth. Our coaches are passionate about mentoring the next generation of sailors and helping them realise their full potential.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe aim to give young TY students an unforgettable experience that will stay with them for life. For us\, sailing is more than just a sport\, it’s a way to help young people grow and learn. While we offer high-quality race training\, we also focus on building character\, confidence\, and self-belief\, both on and off the water. \nAt SailCoach\, we want to make a lasting difference in the lives of the young sailors we work with. We don’t just measure success by results on the racecourse\, but also by the personal progress our TY students make. Our coaches believe that every young person has the potential to succeed and discover what they’re truly capable of. During Transition Year\, we help them develop important life skills that support success in school\, including the Leaving Cert\, and beyond. Our aim is to give them the tools they need for a bright and confident future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA typical day\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach day at TY BaseCamp follows a structured routine designed to help students get the most out of their training\, while also supporting their well-being and independence. \nThe morning begins with students preparing their own breakfast and packed lunch in their shared accommodation\, helping build practical life skills. They then head to the SailBase for a physical activation session led by our in-house Strength & Conditioning coach\, with exercises tailored to suit their age and fitness level. \nBefore heading out on the water\, the coaching team holds a short briefing to set the goals for the day and outline the training plan based on the weather conditions. The afternoon is spent on the water\, focusing on racing skills and boat handling in ILCA Dinghies\, with sessions typically lasting two to three hours.\n \n  \nOnce back ashore\, sailors take part in a recovery session\, which might include light stretching\, swimming\, or even an ice bath\, depending on the day’s intensity. The group then comes together for a debrief to reflect on the day’s training and highlight key learning points. \nEvenings are relaxed and social. Students have dinner together at a nearby restaurant and wind down before lights out\, ready to do it all again the next day. The balance of hard work\, structured routine\, and down time helps students develop discipline\, build friendships\, and stay motivated throughout the camp.\n \n\nBeyond Sailing\nWhile the focus of TY BaseCamp is on developing sailing and life skills\, we also believe it’s important for students to enjoy new experiences and create lasting memories. In the evenings\, the group is fully supervised by our staff as they eat out together in local restaurants\, giving them a safe and structured opportunity to enjoy Spanish culture\, relax\, and socialise in a supportive environment. \nTo keep things fun and varied\, we organise occasional activities like go-karting\, paintball\, “escape room” challenges\, and trips into the city\, where students can explore\, soak up the atmosphere\, and even pick up a few souvenirs for granny. These shared moments add to the sense of adventure\, build friendships\, and give students a well-rounded and unforgettable Transition Year experience.

Our coaches are passionate about mentoring the next generation of sailors and helping them realise their full potential.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe aim to give young TY students an unforgettable experience that will stay with them for life. For us\, sailing is more than just a sport\, it’s a way to help young people grow and learn. While we offer high-quality race training\, we also focus on building character\, confidence\, and self-belief\, both on and off the water. \nAt SailCoach\, we want to make a lasting difference in the lives of the young sailors we work with. We don’t just measure success by results on the racecourse\, but also by the personal progress our TY students make. Our coaches believe that every young person has the potential to succeed and discover what they’re truly capable of. During Transition Year\, we help them develop important life skills that support success in school\, including the Leaving Cert\, and beyond. Our aim is to give them the tools they need for a bright and confident future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA typical day\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach day at TY BaseCamp follows a structured routine designed to help students get the most out of their training\, while also supporting their well-being and independence. \nThe morning begins with students preparing their own breakfast and packed lunch in their shared accommodation\, helping build practical life skills. They then head to the SailBase for a physical activation session led by our in-house Strength & Conditioning coach\, with exercises tailored to suit their age and fitness level. \nBefore heading out on the water\, the coaching team holds a short briefing to set the goals for the day and outline the training plan based on the weather conditions. The afternoon is spent on the water\, focusing on racing skills and boat handling in ILCA Dinghies\, with sessions typically lasting two to three hours.\n \n  \nOnce back ashore\, sailors take part in a recovery session\, which might include light stretching\, swimming\, or even an ice bath\, depending on the day’s intensity. The group then comes together for a debrief to reflect on the day’s training and highlight key learning points. \nEvenings are relaxed and social. Students have dinner together at a nearby restaurant and wind down before lights out\, ready to do it all again the next day. The balance of hard work\, structured routine\, and down time helps students develop discipline\, build friendships\, and stay motivated throughout the camp.\n \n\nBeyond Sailing\nWhile the focus of TY BaseCamp is on developing sailing and life skills\, we also believe it’s important for students to enjoy new experiences and create lasting memories. In the evenings\, the group is fully supervised by our staff as they eat out together in local restaurants\, giving them a safe and structured opportunity to enjoy Spanish culture\, relax\, and socialise in a supportive environment. \nTo keep things fun and varied\, we organise occasional activities like go-karting\, paintball\, “escape room” challenges\, and trips into the city\, where students can explore\, soak up the atmosphere\, and even pick up a few souvenirs for granny. These shared moments add to the sense of adventure\, build friendships\, and give students a well-rounded and unforgettable Transition Year experience.

DESCRIPTION:The 2026 ILCA 4 Worlds will be held in the city of Aarhus\, Denmark\, from Saturday\, the 1st of August to Sunday\, the 9th of August 2026. We at SailCoach have been offering “Coaching Tours” for over 30 years. As a result\, we have the experience that brings the confidence you can rely on for this important regatta. \nPre-Worlds Training Camp\nJoin us for a pre-ILCA 4 Worlds high-performance training camp at our Valencia SailBase from the 18th to the 28th of July 2024. This camp is perfect for sailors who want to prepare for the upcoming ILCA 4 World Championship and get to know our coaching staff better before the main regatta begins. Link to the training camp page.  \nComprehensive Coaching Package\nWhen you join a SailCoach Coaching Tour\, you’ll work with a dedicated\, highly skilled coach\, often with Olympic campaign experience. Our tours are built around small support groups of around six sailors\, ensuring plenty of individual attention. We provide a complete package that covers airport transfers\, accommodation\, and world-class coaching\, with the option to add an ILCA charter boat if needed. All you need to do is enter the regatta and book your flights\, and we’ll take care of the rest. \nLearning Goals\nAt this Championship\, the SailCoach team will focus on building your regatta preparation skills. Each day\, our coaches will guide you through a structured plan with clear goals for the upcoming races. You’ll gain practical knowledge on how to prepare effectively for major events\, ensuring you arrive confident and ready to perform. \nA key part of the program is learning how to adapt to different weather conditions and manage the pressures of high-level competition. Our coaches will help you develop winning race strategies\, sharpen your ability to analyse races\, and refine your tactics. With constructive feedback and guidance\, you’ll also learn how to evaluate your own performance just as top athletes do. \nSuccess doesn’t come overnight\, it takes consistent time and effort. With SailCoach\, you’ll learn the right methods to prepare for regattas\, setting yourself up for long-term progress. We encourage you to continue training and competing regularly to develop these skills and techniques further. \nA typical day\nThe day would start with a morning briefing\, looking over the weather forecasting and communicating anything important from the coaches meeting and specific points to note for the days racing. The SailCoach coaches will offer you coaching support afloat\, such as towing if necessary to get to the starting line. Carry any bags with food and spare parts\, along with a jacket to keep warm between races. \nThe day finishes with a post-race debrief and discussion of the day’s events. In some cases\, our coaches will make briefings individually\, going around the boat park before or after racing\, depending on the circumstances. We advise our sailors to settle any differences on the water or in the boat park when possible. However\, we will be there to support you during protests if all else fails. \nNumbers will be limited on this coaching tour\, so you are advised to book early. \nProgramme: \n1st August 2026\nArrive at Aarhus Airport (AAR) and be met by SailCoach’s friendly coaching staff member\, they will take you to the Aarhus International Sailing Centre\, the venue for this year’s championship. \n2nd and 3rd of August 2026\nFamiliarisation days\, SailCoach will be training at the regatta venue for several days before the event. It gives sailors a chance to get over any jet lag and gain valuable knowledge of the area. Our coaches will help you develop a “Game Plan” strategy and provide you with video analysis that may perfect your boat handling and speed. Having the right preparation is a must when going into an important championship. These pre-regatta days will also help you get to know our coaches\, a significant advantage when racing begins. \n4th to 9th August 2026\nRacing starts in the ILCA 4 Youth Worlds\, in what promises to be a tough event\, ahead lies six days of racing\, with the first three being qualifying rounds\, after which fleets get divided into gold\, silver\, and bronze. With the newly allotted fleets fighting it out over the last three days. However\, don’t worry\, SailCoach’s experienced coaching staff will be there with you giving you all the support you need on and off the water to help you reach your goals. \n10th August 2026\nA member of the SailCoach staff will drop you off at Porto Airport (OPO) for your journey home\, hopefully with a trophy or two under your belt.
