About
We are not SailCoach “making you better” for nothing.
Welcome to SailCoach, the worlds leading coaching and support organisation for sailors from around the world. We have been working with sailors from all corners of the globe from 1995. Places from the Seychelles to the Uruguay and from Iceland to the Cook Islands, providing them with a one-stop-shop for coaching, charter boats, accommodation, campaign support, and mentoring.
Our sailors compete in a variety of events, with a particular focus on the ILCA and Optimist classes. We are proud to say that we have helped many newcomers to sailing progress all the way to the Regional Games, as well as nurtured talented athletes into Olympic medalists.
At SailCoach, we understand that our sailors are not just athletes, but individuals with unique needs and aspirations. That’s why we provide personalised coaching and support that goes beyond the basics. Our sailors develop skills for life and feel like they have been part of an experience, not just a sailing clinic.
For many of our sailors, SailCoach has been the key to achieving their dreams. Without our support, they may have fallen short of their aspirations. We are committed to helping emerging nations grow their sailing programs and achieve success on the global stage. Join us and become part of the SailCoach family today!
Our mission is about more than silverware.
At SailCoach, we believe in developing the whole athlete, not just their skills on the water. We define success as the realization of an individual's personal potential and the acquisition of life skills that extend far beyond the boat park.
Our philosophy is rooted in the idea that sailing is not just a sport, but a way of life. We strive to instill a sense of discipline, teamwork, and perseverance in our athletes that they can apply to all aspects of their lives. Through our coaching and mentoring, we help our sailors build confidence, resilience, and a strong work ethic that will serve them well both on and off the water.
We believe that every sailor has unique strengths and challenges, and we tailor our coaching to meet their individual needs. Our goal is to help our athletes reach their full potential while fostering a love of the sport that will stay with them for a lifetime.
Join us at SailCoach and discover your true potential.
What we do...
At SailCoach, we’re passionate about helping sailors of all levels achieve their full potential. We offer coaching clinics year round at our Malta and Valencia SailBases, as well as traveling to major ILCA 4, 6, and 7 regattas around the world.
Our team of experienced coaches works with full-time athletes who train with us year round, as well as individuals who fit coaching camps and regattas around their work or school schedules.
We strive to create a positive and supportive team dynamic, and we ask that all sailors respect their fellow athletes and coaches.
If you’re interested in devoting a year to ILCA sailing or simply trying out a coaching week or regatta, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re always happy to answer any questions and help you find the best program for your needs.
