During Under 12’s training, IODAI welcomes assistance from former Optimist sailors interested in giving some training back to the fleet. Should you be interested in volunteering to assist the coaches, please contact [email protected]
Volunteering is intended to enhance the skills of older sailors who may become involved in coaching at a later stage. There is no renumeration for volunteers.
