TBSC Optimist
Sail Training Course
2010
The Optimist Sail Training course will be held during the
first week of the season, from Monday 2nd August to Friday 6th August.
It is for children who are members aged between 7 (by
01.08.10) and 14.
The course organisers are Fiona Macdonald
nickfionamacdonald@btinternet.com (admin and applications) and
Caroline Rimmer
rimmers@rimmerhillhouse.co.uk (beach coordinator) They will be
willing to answer any queries by e-mail, but
applications must be received in
writing by completing the application form.
In 2010, the course will be based on the IOCA
(International Optimist Class Association) structure. Again, this year
we will be employing professional RYA instructors. The cost of the
course will depend on which sailing level your child is at and whether
they are using a Club Oppy or their own Oppy.
TBSC Level 1
□ Cost: £85 Club boat
14 children max
based on IOCA Start Sailing Award
1 ½ - 2 hrs (weather dependent)
morning from Lifeboat Bay
3 RYA Instructors, junior instructors and
rescue boats.
TBSC Level 2
□ Cost: £85 own boat, £105 Club boat
18 children max
based on IOCA Grade 1
1 ½ - 2 hrs (weather dependent)
morning from Lifeboat Bay
3 RYA Instructors, junior instructors and
rescue boats
TBSC Level 3
□ Cost: £105 own boat
24 children max
based on IOCA Grade 2
2 ½ - 3 hrs (weather dependent)
afternoon from Lifeboat Bay
own boats only please, no Club boats to be
used
5 RYA Instructors, junior instructors
and rescue boats
TBSC Racing
□ Cost: £105 own boat
14 children max
based on IOCA Grade 3
2 ½ - 3 hrs (weather dependent)
morning from Porth Diana
own boats only please, no Club boats to be
used
All boats to be of a racing standard.
The legal requirement is one RYA instructor, one rescue
boat to 6 optimists up to and including IOCA Grade 2 and one RYA
instructor, one rescue boat to 10 optimists for IOCA Grade 3 and up.
Attached is the full list of the various IOCA Grades that
the children will try to achieve in the week. Certificates are awarded
in each class for those children who have reached the required
standard.
Club Oppies are available for children in levels 1 and 2.
Due to the limited number of Club Oppies priority for these will be
given to children who do not have access to an Oppy, If you have access
to an Oppy, please use it.
Boats must meet the TBSC standard of seaworthiness.
Your childs boat seaworthiness, their sailing ability, suitable
clothing, footwear and buoyancy aid will be checked on the first day.
Helmets will be provided.
We request that ALL Parents or carers offer assistance
during the Oppy week.
Every child requires a named beach carer during the week and this person
must remain on the beach at ALL times whilst their child is in their
session. We depend on these beach helpers especially on the first and
last sessions of EACH day to help lift boats up and down from the boat
house.
Parents and carers MUST NOT leave the beach whilst
their child in their session.
We also ask for parents and the clubs teenagers with
adequate sailing experience to volunteer their assistance during the
week. However, their exact roles will become apparent once the sessions
are under way and the instructors can see where they are needed.
Children taking part in race training and Level 3 are
encouraged to take part in the clubs racing programme.
DURING THE REST OF THE SEASON
we depend on the active and enthusiastic assistance of parents for
spotting, rescue and sailing instruction during these club races. They
will act in addition to the usual club rescue team. Without this help
the Oppies cannot race. A rota is arranged by the Oppy Sailing secretary
and ALL offers of help will be gratefully appreciated
Please can any members that have a small boat that
would be suitable for inshore rescue (a canoe or small dinghy
preferably with an outboard) consider lending it for use by the
Instructors. Please make arrangements for it to be delivered to and
collected from Lifeboat Bay each day.
Dates for your diary:
-
Sunday 1st August 18.00
Village Hall
- preliminary meeting for children, instructors and helpers
-
Friday 6th August 18.00 Lifeboat Bay
- a thank you party for all the parents, helpers and children
During the course parents are advised to keep an eye on
the Club notice boards before each session in case weather or other
circumstances necessitate a change of timing or venue.
A detailed course package giving further information will
be available on the Club website (after 1st July 2010).

Coach Notes
Hold
a briefing and a de-brief, even if it means shortening the time on the
water. Keep briefings short and simple. Be active on the water,
providing simple feedback. Avoid shouting over an outboard engine, give
feedback from upwind with low revs if possible. Choose exercises in
advance for each section, brief the exercises ashore. Choose from those
suggested in the IOCA Flotilla Leaders Pack and vary them. Follow my
leader is an important exercise for working on controlling of speed and
it leads into many other exercises. Build a sailors trust and
confidence in their ability to learn core skills at this level, reward
or praise each section successfully competed. NB: the buddy system is
very valuable and has a lot of use in racing skills later in the
syllabus. Pair up sailors (buddy) as they like with the objective of
encouraging supportive behaviour in many tasks that they will then more
easily do without parents. Each completed section is a success, each
section not completed is not a failure, just a section still to be
competed later. Help sailors really understand the no-go zone and what
is happening in irons. They get very frustrated by this problem and
need good attention to pass through without losing confidence.

Use
follow my leader exercises, extensively in this grade, rotating sailors
from front to back.

understanding. Start and finish with a positive point. Change
exercises before boredom sets in.

Coach Notes
It
may take a lot of sessions to progress through Racing at a satisfactory
level. Do not rush sailors through, concentrate on building the skills
that will be vital to their future in all boats. Work on each point and
get satisfaction when each is signed off.
Coaches help sailors to set a goal for each session and review
afterwards. Involve sailors in planning the session. The 5 essentials
are still the key to success at Racing. Use circle the committee boat
and short oval courses as exercises and stay close, working on each
essential in turn. NB Developing proper footwork and weight transfer is
very important. See the Opticoach CD for examples. Tacking and gibing
off the knees, facing forward, is crucial to controlling both exercise.
Body balance and confidence to get off knees and onto feet Is crucial to
learning to control the gybe. Look for small rudder movements upwind
and downwind through the gybe. Gybing with balance on the toes, not
knees, perhaps standing up with the tiller between legs, aiming to
assist the gybe by pulling the sail across by hand at the right movement
is the standard to aim for at Racing. Up wind look for the sailor to
move the back good across the boat and plant it in the corner of the
central thwart and side of boat before completing a roll tack manoeuvre.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING
YOU ALL
