Tackers is a great sailing program for kids aged 7 to 12 – It’s fun, safe and affordable!
Tackers is an introductory, fun, games-based sailing program designed for kids aged 7 to 12. Kids don’t need to have any sailing experience and they don’t have to be a member of Elwood Sailing Club to participate. All the equipment, including the boats, is provided.
Kids play loads of games and go on adventures together to learn how to sail. There isn’t a court, a pitch or an oval like other sports, instead you have a beach and bay explore. Click here to find out all the fun you could have doing Tackers.
Tackers 1
Having Fun – Kids sail in pairs in small boats. It’s a great way to meet new friends and kids have the chance to sail with others in their group. Tackers 1 introduces children to the basics of sailing through games on and off the water.
Tackers 2
Tricks & Techniques – If kids are confident, they can sail a boat on their own with lots of support, supervision and encouragement from the Instructor and Assistant Instructors.
The courses will be held at Elwood Sailing Club, Foreshore, Elwood, off Ormond Esplanade. (Melways ref 67B4). A Council-controlled car park is adjacent and meter fees are payable (please bring plenty of coins).
Costs
Each Tackers course cots $320 per child for a 20 hour course with a free make up day if any time is missed.
Members and family of members will receive a 33% discount please email manager@elwoodsc.com to arrange discount.
