Situated on the banks of a 45 acre lake
within the picturesque Kingsbury
Water Park,
the club offers leisure activity for all ages under seven or over seventy,
there's something for everyone. Sailing experience is not essential, there
are courses for those that want active participation and comfortable
clubhouse facilities for those happy to sit and watch. Whilst the main focus, is small boat sailing and racing,
there is a variety of 'on shore' social events, ideal for family group
participation. For the keen dinghy helmsman there are the regular weekly
races, competing for a variety of trophies throughout the summer season. For
the even more dedicated and hardy there are other trophies to win during the
cold and sometimes icy conditions of winter. Tamworth Sailing Club is an all
year, all weather club. For the watchers, the large brick built clubhouse
offers a range of refreshments during sailing days and on special occasions.
All sailing club members can obtain a
pass from the Waterpark Office, giving them free access to the Water Park at all times. This large nature
reserve controlled by Warwickshire County Council is now a popular leisure park
often crowded on summer weekends and holidays. Nature trails provide walks
through a profusion of wild flowers and shrubbery, which provides protection
for an interesting variety of birds and wildfowl. There are numerous other
areas of water surrounding the main sailing venue, one caters for model
boaters and another accommodates Jet Skis, it adds to the volume of
activities found throughout the park at weekends and provides interesting
diversions away from the sailing.
We share the water with the Midland
Hydroplane club, taking alternate days throughout the year, which gives you a
chance to go shopping on the non- sailing days!!
