Lancing Sailing Club Sports Day & BBQ
Join us for a fun-filled Sports Day and BBQ at Lancing Sailing Club!
Following training, we’ll be keeping the rescue boat on the water and giving members the opportunity to try some of the fantastic activities available at the club. Think of it as an Open Day, but exclusively for our members.
Have you ever wanted to:

Try a SUP or kayak?
Go for a sail in an RS400 or Laser?
Challenge a swimmer to a race?

This is your chance!
To make the day a success, we’re looking for members willing to share their activity with others and help fellow members experience something new.
Volunteers Needed (you can still join in with the other events)
We’re looking for leaders and helpers for the following:

Event Coordinator (Schedule all the times)
Safety Boat Helm and Crew
SUP/Kayak Lead
Swim Lead
Sailing Lead

Encourage sailors to take members out in their boats
Organise participants and activity sessions

BBQ Chef

After the activities, we’ll finish the day with a club BBQ and social, giving everyone a chance to relax, chat, and enjoy the evening together.
And if you’ve got a new toy, gadget, board, boat, or bit of kit you’ve been wanting to try out on the beach, this is the perfect day to bring it along!
We look forward to seeing you there!
Event activities will be subject to weather conditions, Social will happen whatever!

Wednesday Evening Series 17 and Johnny McKeown’s celebration
2026-08-26 18:00 - 21:00
On the evening the racing will have a 6pm start and we will look to get things going when the sailors are off the water and everything is packed away. Mike Theo has kindly taken the lead to get a BBQ under way with some meat from the Steyning butcher. The bar will of course be open and a Greek themed barbecue will be served. With some delicious Greek themed accompaniments and veggie option. Penny will be doing Dolmades and a vegan yihanes gigantes (giant butter beans in a tomato sauce).
The meal is a Greek style meal, in recognition of Johnny’s love of Vassiliki and Johnny was always fond of the Wednesday evening series since they are run on a personal handicap basis, giving newer and less experienced sailors a chance to win a trophy so we think this event will have gained his approval.
We are hoping that Johnny’s family will be able to get to the Club and we will present and this years prize for the Wednesday series about 9 o’clock. Of course there won’t be a need to hurry away after.
There will be a charge of £10 for the BBQ which will be a preorder up until evening of Sunday 23 August so we can order the meat. Bob will put a poll on the WhtasApp announcement or RSVP on here.
