About the Clinic
The Northwest Women’s Coaching Clinic is a layered event to provide opportunities for collaboration and mentorship between professional and prospective female Sailing Coaches. Additionally the Coaches will be operating a Women’s College Clinic as part of the experience. This event serves as one regional element for the larger Women's Coaching Program which is supported by US Sailing.
***Note: Free housing can be provided for coaches who need it! Please contact Clinic Director Sarah Hanavan at oychighschoolsailing@gmail.com. for more details!***
The Goal
Participating Coaches will have the opportunity to both learn and teach, be mentored and mentor. Ideally, the all-women event will provide a different and more collaborative context for coaches to discuss professional development, the Sailing industry and share ideas with each other while making lasting connections. Additionally, the female collegiate sailors who will be coached by the group of women’s coaches will have the opportunity to work with coaches that may be able to relate to their experiences better than male coaches, and again provide a different and perhaps new context for learning and inspiration, as well as more opportunities for networking and connections beyond the event.
