Whitefriars Sailing Club - The Friendly Sailing Club

May 5th Update:

Wow, what a start to the year. We've now been open for 5 weeks and it's been great to see so many old friends and new getting back on the water.

Our Training Team have already delivered sessions to over a 150 members wanting support to get back sailing or those completely new to our sport. We are continuing to deliver our Saturday Sessions and these will count towards your RYA level 1 and 2 qualifications.

A full racing programme has been well attended with some close fought finishes, as well as two open events (Laser and Hansa) and an RS300 Open on 8th May.

All our groups are fully up and running with exciting plans for the year ahead.

The camping field is now open for 'self-contained' camping - overnight facilities should be open later in the month.

Friendly. Accessible. Fun.

Whatever your age or sailing ability, diehard racer, newcomer to sailing or you simply love mucking about on the water, here at The Whitefriars Sailing Club our focus is on making sailing fun and accessible for all.

Situated on the stunning Cotswold Water Park, Whitefriars is run by the members for the members. We believe that by striking a healthy balance between competition and fun we can give everyone access to the same opportunities to learn, improve and participate as much or as little as they want.

That’s why we offer a diverse range of on and off the water activities, including racing, cruising, an extensive RYA training programme and a whole host of social activities for all the family. Proud to be one of the top clubs in the UK for our Sailability capabilities, our friendly team of enthusiastic volunteers support this varied programme throughout the year.
