Clubs and Centres

Information is here to support administrators of clubs and training centres.

Clubs may affiliate to RYA, and those based in Northern Ireland would then automatically become affiliated to RYA Northern Ireland. Organisations wishing to become an RYA club or centre can contact RYANI for advice.

Clubs and centres should register their latest contact details with both RYA and RYANI in order to receive the latest updates. For Training centres there are forms to complete for significant changes.

Club development forums and support programmes are delivered by RYA and RYANI, and a number of ezines and publications are available.

Resources are provided by RYA and RYANI, with support from Sport NI and other funders. 

Please watch ‘latest news’, social media, and the remainder of this website for details.
