Sailing

Although Sailing is a niche and rare sport, it demands the same level of grit and determination as any other. Sailing is an outdoor sport and requires a boat powered solely by the wind. To excel in sailing, a sailor must demonstrate excellent technique to traverse a course as fast as possible. Apart from being physically fit, sailors are also quick thinking and adaptable, utilising many tactics to gain the edge over other competitors.

During a typical CCA session, you would hear lots of laughter while shared experiences are made out at sea. In the Raffles Sailing team, every member has a burning passion for the sport. Be it rain or shine, we always give it our all during the annual National School Games to bring glory to the school’s name.
