Success Sailing                       

A Unified Team Approach Teaching Sailing to athletes with Intellectual Disabilities.  The goal is to introduce sailing as a recreational activity while instilling a passion for the sport whereby the participants grow to a point where they consider themselves “sailors”.  We hope someday to align our program with Special Olympics.  Until such time this program will lay the groundwork towards developing sailors.

Participant Guidelines:

• Ages 14+
• Capable of swimming with a lifejacket on
• Able to verbally communicate with teammate when mentor-coach is provided.
• Students with the fitness, agility, and comfort in and around water will discover success quickly
