High School Sailing

Our High School sailing program will split teams up into Varsity and Junior Varsity. Varsity will practice on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday's and Junior Varsity will sail on Monday and Friday's. Practice will start at 4:00pm and end at 7:00pm.  We are accepting anyone who is in 8th grade-12th grade. Schools practicing out of SSA are Archbishop Spalding, Bethesda Chevy-Chase, and Broadneck HS. If you are outside of these schools, please contact Travis to discuss practice options.

Tryouts will be August 29th, 30th, and September 3rd with regular practice beginning on Sept 9.

Broadneck: August 29th

Bethesda: August 30th

Spalding: September 3rd.

We provide each team with boats and coaching.  Each sailor needs to make sure that they have their own Coast Guard approved life jacket, sunglasses, countdown watch, water bottle and bailer.  You will also need to make sure that you come to practice everyday with running shoes in case there is no wind, and a change of clothes that you can get wet.  You must also have shoes that can get wet or sailing booties.  We will not allow any sailor to sail bare foot, it is dangerous and you can get hurt.  Helmets, although not mandatory, are recommended if you are newer to the sport to avoid any head injuries.  You can get a helmet from REI, Walmart, Target, or Amazon.
