Tamworth Sailing Club is situated on the banks of a 45 acre lake within the picturesque Kingsbury Water Park. The club offers leisure activity for all ages there's something for everyone. Sailing experience is not essential as 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 spectators 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!!
