High School Program
The Encinal Yacht Club High School Sailing Program is for sailors in grades 8-12 wanting to sharpen their sailing skills throughout the fall, winter, and spring. Participants in the program attend regular practices at EYC and several weekend regattas around the Bay Area and Southern California. The regatta's are run by the Pacific Interscholastic Sailing Association (PCISA). The PICSA Regatta Schedule is here.
Currently in our 12th year of High School Sailing, Encinal has had 28 sailors move on to College Sailing in schools around the country. Of those 28, 16 are currently active, 12 have graduated, and 13 have been captain of their teams!
