Invitation to join our On-Water Volunteer Team

We look back with pride at the many successful on-water events we’ve been able to deliver, all thanks to the dedication and hard work of our volunteers. It is important to recognise that these events could not have happened without the support of our skilled and experienced volunteer team. They are the backbone of everything we do, ensuring that each event runs smoothly, safely, and with the level of excellence we strive for.

We understand that everyone leads busy lives, and time is precious. However, one of the core values of being part of a Club is the opportunity to give back. Volunteering is essential to the ongoing success of our events, and it's crucial that we continue to foster a culture where our members support one another, especially when it comes to providing the help needed to run our sailing events.

As we look ahead to the future, it’s clear that we must expand our volunteer pool to ensure we can continue delivering the high-quality experiences that our membership expects. Currently, we rely on a small but incredibly valuable group of volunteers, and while they are passionate and dedicated, we need to ensure that the next generation of volunteers is ready to step up. The future of our events depends on it.

This winter, we will be running volunteer training sessions for on-water roles, and we would love to welcome more members into our volunteer team. If you're an existing volunteer, we encourage you to tap someone on the shoulder and share your experiences. Help us reach those who may not yet have considered volunteering, but who could make a real difference in the future of our events. Your firsthand experience could be the encouragement someone needs to get involved.

Volunteering at RFBYC is not just about giving your time; it's about being part of a community. It provides you with the opportunity to meet new people, learn new skills, and, of course, give back to our Club. Whether you're looking to try something new or just want to help ensure the continued success of our sailing events, there’s a place for you on our team. No experience is necessary, just a willingness to learn, have fun and meet other members.

If you’re interested in volunteering or attending one of our informal training sessions, please complete the volunteer form, and one of our friendly on-water staff will be in touch soon. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, is invaluable and helps make our events possible.

We hope you’ll consider joining our volunteer team and helping us continue to create exceptional sailing experiences for all. Together, we can keep delivering outstanding events and strengthen the vibrant community here at RFBYC.

Come on board—we look forward to seeing you soon!
