Youth Sailing & Racing

Northwest Youth Racing Circuit (NWYRC)
Once your sailor becomes obsessed with sailing they'll want to do it year round. NWYRC is the place to get started. The youth circuit is most active in summer and one usually needs to provide their own boat, however if your sailor stays involved with the OYC they can use our boats at events.

The Sailing Foundation
A local NW non-profit dedicated to advancing the sport of sailing especially among youth. Many of our events are sponsored or supported by the Sailing Foundation. They also provide scholarships that can be used for classes or race team dues.
