Marlena Berzins Pathway Program

One of the club’s strategic objectives is to get more members to the start line each weekend.  We know that our start lines can be quite intimidating for new-ish sailors (and even some experienced sailors), as boats jostle for position, rules are yelled back and forth, and the occasional bump or scrape occurs!

We have consulted with some of our LTR participants, and have developed a new pathway program to transition our sailors from the Learn to Race program onto the start line each week.  Marlena Berzins has agreed to coach this program, and we are inviting six of our female sailors to trial the program in three sessions that will be held during the remainder of this season. 

Our plan is to run this program in small groups on an ongoing basis starting next season, with all our “pathway” sailors being provided an opportunity to participate over time.  We will communicate more details of the ongoing program in the lead up to next season.
