RYA Connected South West
The SW RYA Connected Conference will take place on 04 November at Taunton Racecourse. This is a new development for what used to be the Affiliated Clubs Conference; it is now broader in scope, and will be attended by teams involved with managing clubs, class associations, club-based Training Centres and Sailability groups – in fact all RYA affiliates.
The increase in the number and variety of people attending will enhance the event because there will be more people to connect with and more topics will be covered in all the presentations and workshops available.
This free-to-attend conference, which includes lunch and refreshments, will allow teams and individuals to share, learn and grow together:
- Share: Most of the clubs in the region to be represented, so it’s a great chance to meet other volunteers and share ideas in the forums and networking opportunities, when some of the big topics for our sport right now will be discussed.
- Learn: There will be presentations from RYA technical experts such as its in-house lawyers, and a plenary session where a panel will explore the headlines and highlights from the past year and discuss how the RYA can tailor its approach to meet the needs of current and future members. This will be a great opportunity to connect with RYA specialists and tap into their knowledge and experience.
- Grow: Through a selection of workshops covering topics like growing the number of volunteers, diversifying your offer and creating a thriving racing scene.
Bring a team from your club, and consider including people from training, racing, membership and more.
