We are a volunteer run organisation, which provides racing and training for school age sailors throughout the County of Derbyshire. Derbyshire Youth Sailing (DYS) is all about having fun, making new long term friends and taking that next step in developing your sailing skills outside of your club environment. DYS was formed in 2000 to ensure youth sailing continued in Derbyshire when school sailing came to an end. DYS is affiliated to the RYA and the NSSA (National Schools Sailing Association). We are also part of DSSA (Derbyshire Schools Sports Association) and are the official body in Derbyshire for awarding County Colours in Sailing. All sailors aged 18 and under who are members of a Derbyshire club, attend a Derbyshire school or live in Derbyshire are automatically members of DYS. There is no joining fee. All you have to do is come along to any of our events or training and start joining in the fun. You don’t have to own your own boat or transport a boat as boats are available to hire at the different venues.
