Women and girls ‘steering the course’ in 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ |05 October 2021

Seychellois girls and women will be introduced to watersports on Sunday October 10 during the ‘Steering the Course’ women festival.

The event is free and will take place at the 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ Training Scheme at Roche Caïman., starting at 9am.

An initiative of World Sailing, the festival aims to introduce women and girls in 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ and the world to the sport of sailing, but in 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ canoeing and windsurfing will also feature on the list.

The activities will form part of the women’s sailing festival ‘Steering the Course’ which is being organised by the 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ Yachting Association in collaboration with World Sailing.

Leading up to Sunday’s event, the 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ NATION newspaper, which has witnessed the progress of watersports in 91Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ, will print short stories about its history and also run promotional articles about successful females who have graced the different watersports events.

In today’s first series, we meet Van Goulding who was instrumental in teaching generations of children to swim and sail safely.
