The future and quality of any sailing club lies in its youth development. At RFBYC, there are over 250 junior members who will progress to the senior Club and continue our fine sailing traditions. Junior members are actively encouraged through an extensive training and development programme along with assistance to compete in interstate and overseas regattas.
