SLAM Sailing Centre
Thanks to the Sailing Centre staff for all
their efforts in 2013
Words Rob Allen
I would like to say a huge
thank you to all the staff at the
Sailing Centre for their efforts
during 2013. It has been another
extremely busy year at the Club
for the sailing staff. The team have
been instrumental in enabling the
Centre to operate smoothly whilst
organising and coordinating a
variety of different courses and
events on a monthly basis.

Sailing Centre training wall
If you have passed by the Centre in recent weeks, you may
have noticed the new addition to the Sailing Centre’s wall. We are
delighted to now have a visual training mural for the staff who are
running training courses and events at the Centre. This not only
brightens up our training area, but has also been extremely beneficial
to everyone when running briefings and debriefings during group
sessions. Thanks to Bowie for doing a great job and creating this
masterpiece for us to use at the Centre.
助理教練培訓課程載譽歸來，為航海中心訓練新一代年輕會
員教練，以協助中心提供培訓課程，並為 2014 年賽季做準備。
Well done to all the Hebe Dragons sailors who made it to
the Southside Regatta a few weeks ago.
本課程結合理論與實踐，對任何有志任職航海中心的年輕選
手而言，既能學習新技能，又能成為團隊一部分，可謂一舉
兩得。

熱烈恭賀 Hebe Dragons 選手於數週前舉辦的大賽表現出色﹗

Assistant Instructor Training Course

Hebe Dragons Optimist Sailors
Once again, we will be running our annual Assistant Instructor
Training programme, in order to provide the Sailing Centre with a
new generation of young staff from our membership to assist the
Centre with its training courses and events for the 2014 season.
The course is both theory and practical based and,
consequently, it is always an extremely beneficial weekend for any
young sailors looking to work at the Centre, learn new skills and
become part of the sailing team.
藉此機會，我希望向航海中心所有職員致謝，2013年大家都
忙過不停，為中心順利運作而花盡心思，每月更抽空統籌各類
型課程及活動，我為此向各位深表謝意。
職員向來盡心盡力確保中心有效運作，我定期收到會員或中
