SheSails
SheSails is working with clubs and classes to build female participation in Sailing in South Australia. Does your club have a SheSails Club Representative on the South Australian SheSails Network Group?
Australian Sailing’s goal is to have a SheSails Club Representative at every Club in Australia. This person collaborates with the Australian Sailing staff and the SheSails State Groups, on a voluntary basis, to enhance female participation in the sport of sailing.
Club Representatives are passionate about sailing and are good communicators who are supported by the club to liaise with committees, members and volunteers to positively promote female friendliness, inclusiveness and participation.
Please discuss this with your committee and hope they support a SheSails Club Rep or Reps (We welcome multiple people if required)
