Introduction

Welcome to Swarkestone Sailing Club. We offer great opportunities, from youngsters beginning their journey into the sport of sailing to Sailors with a little more experience taking their first steps into racing. We can also offer challenging racing for the more experienced sailor. Swarkestone Sailing Club is a great place for everyone from beginners to experienced sailors.

We also offer membership for those who enjoy stand up paddle boarding.  The lake has many interesting areas to explore and a variety of different water birds.

Become a member of Swarkestone Sailing Club or attend an RYA Training Course or just enjoy stand up paddle boarding around the lake.

Sailability

Disabled members are an integral part of the club and club life and are welcomed by this, the friendliest of clubs. The Sailability Project has helped disabled adults and children find new levels of freedom and also encourages disabled people to compete in all aspects of racing and club life.

The group meet on Wednesdays throughout the sailing season and can sail in our specially adapted dinghies, some of which have been adapted to enable the most severely disabled members to sail.
