Gresford Sailing Club

Sports category:

Water Sports

Overview

With a 6 acre lake Gresford SC is probably the smallest sailing club in the world. A very friendly family based club with over 100 members, we have invested in improving accessibility to all parts of our club grounds. This has helped some of our octogenarian members to continue competitive dinghy racing while other less mobile members are very active in the Model Boat section. Our RYA accredited training courses are accessible to people with minor impairments, however we do not yet have adapted dinghies
