The Etobicoke Yacht Club (EYC) established a not-for-profit Junior Sail Program (JSP) in 2000 exclusively to promote the sport of sailing for the youth in our community. The Program operates from a dedicated sail training facility within the Etobicoke Yacht Club grounds and on the water in the beautiful and sheltered Humber Bay.

The Program is open to youth between the ages of 7 to 17, from absolute beginner to the more experienced sailors who want to continue developing their skills.

All our coaches or instructors are nationally certified and insured by Sail Canada and Ontario Sailing to deliver the nationally accredited CANSail curriculum. Our highly motivated staff is dedicated to share the love of sailing and to get out on the water with the program participants whenever the program curriculum requires it. They also develop their own sailor skills as many of the coach's participant in club racing and are highly successful sailors in their own right.
