ALLEYNIAN SAILING SOCIETY This year, the Alleynian Sailing Society took part in the Arrow Trophy, a racing regatta held each year on the Solent comprising 24 independent schools. It is a full weekend of sailing and Dulwich has won it four times in the past twelve years, and has taken home silverware most others. In June 2019, we chartered a yacht to cross the Channel to take part in the Dunkirk celebrations. Sadly, the weather was not ideal for a crossing so we sailed westward and cruised the Hampshire and Dorset coastlines. Undoubtedly the highlight of the year was the Boys’ Sail Training Week in the summer. An annual event, the Society charters yachts and takes up to 24 pupils from the College sailing for the week. Many thanks to the skippers and crews (and supporters on the water) involved in all the events throughout the year - their participation is vital to its continued success on behalf of the School and the Society. If you are interested in sailing then the Alleynian Sailing Society takes OAs of all ages, from school leavers to ol’salts in their seventh and eighth decade. Our membership also includes parents of boys at the College and School staff. You do not have to have any experience and we also go dingy sailing at Chipstead Waters most Sundays. There are no subs to pay for the first three years after leaving school and your expenses and sailing charter expenses will be subbed whilst at University or for the first three or four years after leaving the College. For more details about joining, get in touch with the Secretary, Anthony Frankford anthonytfrankford @ gmail.com or the Alleyn Club office.
