Race training for disabled competitors
01 Feb 2006
Project 2012 will be three, two year programmes starting in the spring of 2006 utilising, improving and extending the existing training facilities at Suffolk Yacht Harbour in order to increase the capacity and quality of sail boat race training.
The initial two year programme will identify those disabled competitors who have realistic potential to achieve consideration for team places in addition to providing regular opportunities for Vision 2012 members to race in small sailboats against both disabled and able bodied competitors.
The first stage of Vision 2012 will: modify the existing fleet of five Squib Keelboats; cover travel costs of disabled members and volunteers; provide professional race coaching to national standards; provide appropriate fitness training sessions; liaise with national and regional charities and governing bodies.
