Welcome to West Riding Sailing Club, Wakefield |
|
Formed in 1937, West Riding Sailing Club is one of the largest and oldest sailing clubs in Yorkshire with around 300 members and 120 boats. We are situated five miles South-East of Wakefield on Wintersett Reservoir with a sailing area covering approximately 100 acres.
A new clubhouse built in 2006 is the pride of the club and hosts many social activities throughout the year. The club caters for all sailors from the novice to the experienced racer. The club races every Sunday during the year and Wednesday nights during the summer months. The water is open any other time for recreational sailing.

Double Diamond Jubilee Regatta 2012 |
Expectations are building nicely for West Riding SC’s Double Diamond Jubilee Regatta to be held over the weekend 26/27th May, and celebrating the club’s 75th anniversary.
As one of its attractions the regatta will be hosting the Streaker Inland Championship. It will also be featuring a Classic and Vintage Racing Dinghy class for boats designed before 1965 and over 25 years old, and supported by the CVDRA. This class will be strengthened by the presence of some of the home club Swordfish that have been sailing at West Riding SC since 1948.
