Youth sailors from Yeadon Sailing Club have become the ones to beat in the opening events of the 2009 Yorkshire & Humberside Youth Sailing Association series that commenced recently.
The first event of the series was held at Huddersfield Sailing club on the 25th April. Matthew and Benjamin Lulham-Robinson sailing a Mirror dinghy stamped their authority on the event by playing the wind-shifts, to beat the other 20 boats on handicap.

The second event was held at Scammonden Water on the 2nd May. In a shifty force 2/3 wind, Adam Simms sailing his Laser won 2 races out of 3 in a closely fought tussle. The event was decided in the final race, when Adam managed to keep the chasing pack behind him to secure the race win.
A great start guys, keep the flag flying !!
If you've not been to one of the events yet but fancy go, speak with Neil, Peter or John for details of the ones that are coming up
