  • TO ALL TOPPER SAILORS AND PARENTS


    Why are some Topper sailors so much better than others?

    Most likely they have been a member of an RYA sponsored coaching TOPPER ZONE SQUAD.

    There are 10 or so of these squads throughout the country.

    These squads give excellent coaching to keen young Topper sailors

    Most of you (subject to age) are all eligible to apply to join the South East Zone Topper Squad.

    This squad has the best 18 , or so, Topper sailors in a selected group that meet approximately once a month throughout the autumn, winter and spring, at various venues


    Island Barn has had 3 Zone Squad members in the Zone Squad in recent years:

    > Tom Howard
    > William Scott
    > Nancy Scott
