Donaghadee Sailing Club officially opened its new club house today with the help of double Olympic Gold medallist Shirley Robertson OBE. The Club, has a new purpose built club house thanks to 5 years of planning and, amongst others, a successful grant application to Sport NI.

The Volvo Eco Challenge is a great opportunity for young sailors to get actively involved with an environmental project for their club. The Eco Challenge provides grants of up to £1000 to sailing clubs who undertake an environmental initiative, carried out by young people aged between 10 – 16 at their club
