Race Team Training

We offer weekend pratices for Opti and Laser youth sailors. We welcome everyone to be a part of the team. We have a coaching staff that helps our Junior sailors to achieve their goals, grow, and feel confident in their sailing abilities. There are 11 Regattas that our sailors have the opportunity to go to around Texas (6 local to DFW) throughout the year.

Check out our practice calendar here.

Junior Team Practice Coaching & Cost

Welcome to the Grapevine Junior Sailing Team!

All our practices are lead by Coach Alexis Meyer. Coach Alexis grew up in the GSC junior program and has raced Optis, Lasers and 420's and has competed in the USODA National Championships, Orange Bowl International Youth Regatta and TSA youth circuit races and regattas. As an adult, she has continued to stay active in sailing and racing. Her goal is to teach our youth that they can rely on their own knowledge and problem solve in the water.
