SUMMARY:May T Y Programme - Valencia
DESCRIPTION:SailCoach has created the May TY BaseCamp with Irish school students in mind. However\, we extend a warm welcome to sailors from other countries who wish to join this group of 15 and 16-year-olds\, focusing on ILCA 4 and ILCA 6 sailing. Our TY BaseCamp is offered four times annually in March\, June\, October\, and November\, based at our SailBases in Malta and Valencia. These Mediterranean SailBases serve as our home for ILCA and Optimist sailors who are passionate about our sport. \nWe understand that a number of TY students would like to use this flexible school year to develop their sailing skills and perhaps get to the required standard to be selected for the Irish Sailing Academy or just learn about life away from home. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe SailCoach TY BaseCamp program offers a unique educational opportunity\, allowing young sailors to immerse themselves in the world of ILCA sailing. This firsthand experience provides valuable insights into the daily routines and practices of top-level coaches and full-time sailors on our team\, fostering character building and personal growth. It often comes as an eye-opener for club level ILCA sailors\, as they witness the dedication and commitment required to excel in this sport. \nDuring the program\, participants can expect a rigorous schedule\, with ILCA coaching sessions conducted 5 to 6 days a week. They will have the privilege of training alongside experienced peers\, benefiting from the camaraderie and competition that this environment fosters. Additionally\, our in-house strength and conditioning coach will be available to guide them in improving their fitness levels\, ensuring they are well prepared to meet the demands of ILCA Dinghy sailing while developing valuable life skills. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre Clinic Entry Experience\n\n\n\n\nThe TY BaseCamp welcomes sailors with a strong motivation to enhance and refine their racing skills\, aiming to take a substantial leap toward elevating their national standards. Participants are not restricted to regular ILCA Dinghy sailors; we extend our invitation to those originating from national youth classes such as Topper\, 29er\, and 420. However\, it is essential that they possess the capability to sail in 18 to 20 knots of wind on the open sea. Our program values diversity and embraces sailors from various backgrounds and experiences who share a common goal of advancing their racing abilities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSailCoach’s Coaching Philosophy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are dedicated to inspiring young individuals through an unforgettable adventure that leaves a lasting imprint on their lives. Sailing transcends the realm of leisure activity\, it serves as a powerful catalyst for personal transformation. Our goal extends beyond providing top race training\, it encompasses the development of character\, confidence\, and self-esteem\, both on and off the water. \nAt SailCoach\, we are committed to making a lifelong impact on everyone we encounter. We measure our success not solely by sailing achievements but also by the personal growth and achievements of our TY students. Our coaches are firm believers in the potential of all young people to succeed and realise their true capabilities. During their school transition year\, we aim to equip them with a valuable set of life skills\, enabling them to excel in various aspects of life\, including academic success in the Leaving Cert. Our goal is to empower them for a bright and promising future. \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\nThe day will start at 08:30\, with students making their breakfast and packing lunches for the day in their TY apartment\, then meeting at 10:30 at the SailBase for a physical training activation session. These physical training sessions will be conducted by our in-house S&C coaches\, with care being taken that the exercises are suitable for that age group\, ensuring their safety. \nA briefing will follow what the coach plans for the day’s sailing sessions and point out the areas where the coach intends to focus\, considering the prevailing weather conditions. After a short lunch\, students will go afloat for the race training session\, which could last between two to three hours\, again depending on the weather forecast. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter sailing\, the S&C coach will take control of the group\, running a recovery session that sometimes involves an ice bath or swims. There will be a debrief on the day’s activities either before or after dinner at a local restaurant. There will be some time set aside in the evening to relax before bed by 22:30… then it will start all over again.

SUMMARY:January TY BaseCamp (Valencia)
DESCRIPTION:SailCoach has designed this January T Y BaseCamp for Irish school students. However\, other sailors from other countries are also welcome to join this group of 15 and 16 year olds sailing ILCA 4 and ILCA 6. The TY BaseCamp runs four or five times a year in the months of January\, March\, June\, October and November from our Malta and Valencia SailBases. We run the programme from our Mediterranean SailBase in Malta and Valencia\, where we have our SailBase for all kinds of ILCA and Optimist sailors. \nWe understand that a number of TY students would like to use this flexible school year to develop their sailing skills and perhaps get to the required standard to be selected for the Irish Sailing Academy or just learn about life away from home. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Transition Year programme exposes sailors to the culture of a professional ILCA sailor\, allowing them to see firsthand how things are done by the full-time sailors on our team. Their lifestyle alone is an eye-opener for most club-level ILCA sailors. In this environment\, the days are filled with ILCA coaching 5 or 6 days a week\, with good training partners and quality time with our in-house strength and conditioning coach to work on fitness levels. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre Clinic Entry Experience\n\n\n\n\nThis TY BaseCamp is intended for highly motivated sailors who want to improve and hone their racing skills to make a significant step forward towards improving their national standards. They don’t necessarily need to be regular ILCA Dinghy sailors\, and they can come from national youth classes such as Topper\, 29er and 420. However\, they should be capable of sailing in 20 kn of wind on the open sea. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSailCoach’s Coaching Philosophy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe endeavour to inspire young people with an unforgettable adventure that makes a lifelong impact. As you may know\, Sailing is more than just a leisure activity\, it is a catalyst that can transform people’s lives. Not only will we give the TY students the very best race training\, but we’ll also help them build confidence and self-esteem\, both on and off the water. \nWe aim to have a lasting\, lifelong impact on everyone we meet. At SailCoach\, we measure our success by our student’s achievements. We remain committed to providing TY students with outstanding coaching while building essential life skills. The SailCoach coaches believe that all young people have the ability to succeed and realise their real potential – we aim to ensure that they have that opportunity during their transition year\, developing a set of skills to help them achieve\, amongst other things\, good grades in the leaving cert. \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\nThe day will start at 08:30\, with students making their breakfast and packing lunches for the day in their TY apartment\, then meeting at 10:30 at the Royal Malta Yacht Club for a physical training activation session. These physical training sessions will be conducted by our in-house S&C coaches\, with care being taken that the exercises are suitable for that age group\, ensuring their safety. \nA briefing will follow what the coach plans for the day’s sailing sessions and point out the areas where the coach intends to focus\, considering the prevailing weather conditions. After a short lunch\, students will go afloat for the race training session\, which could last between two to three hours\, again depending on the weather forecast. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter sailing\, the S&C coach will take control of the group\, running a recovery session that sometimes involves an ice bath or swims. There will be a debrief on the day’s activities either before or after dinner at a local restaurant. There will be some time set aside in the evening to relax before bed by 22:30… then it will start all over again.

SUMMARY:Half-Term Clinic - Valencia
DESCRIPTION:The focus of this six day ILCA 4 and ILCA 6 Half Term Clinic is to provide a platform for sailors who have been active in their national youth sailing circuits or Optimists sailors who would like to make the transition to the ILCA Class and is designed for talented club sailors aged 15 and over. \n\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 6 Clinic will look hard at developing upwind and downwind speed with extensive video analysis. \nSailCoach believes strongly in the multi-national training concept which we developed many years back. Therefore this one week of hard training will give sailors the opportunity to push themselves hard against competitors from other countries. It will also provide young sailors with the opportunity to be coached by the most experienced ILCA dinghy coaches available\, including coaches who have been members of the Team SailCoach squad at different Olympics. \nThe clinic’s daily schedule will combine classroom lessons with on the water exercises offering healthy competition and is followed up with 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 venue\, 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 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 Half-Term 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.
