College Sailing Team Support

Bringing Foiling And Podium Support To Your Sailing Team

USFoil provides universities and colleges with a turnkey way to introduce foiling to their entire sailing program — from large team clinics to high-performance athlete development to coach development. We supply the boats, certified coaches, and training systems that allow college sailors to experience the future of the sport firsthand, without requiring the program to invest in permanent equipment before it’s ready.

Our approach begins with on-campus or venue-based clinics, where USFoil delivers a fleet of WASZP and wing foil equipment along with USFoil Certified Coaches. These sessions expose the entire team to foiling — combining instruction, demonstration, and hands-on sailing so that every athlete, regardless of background or skill level, can safely experience flight. The goal is to make foiling accessible, exciting, and part of the team culture.

Once the foundational clinics are complete, USFoil works with each program to identify and support top-performing athletes who are ready for the next step. These sailors receive advanced coaching, performance tracking, and opportunities to join the Race Teams and Podium Team, gaining access to elite training camps, professional mentorship, and international racing experience through the Class pathways.

USFoil coaches can also accompany and support university sailors at College Foiling Qualifiers, National Championships, and major invitational events, ensuring that top athletes benefit from consistent coaching and performance feedback throughout their season. This structure allows the broader team to enjoy the fun and innovation of foiling, while creating clear advancement opportunities for the most driven competitors.

Becoming a USFoil University Partner gives your program continued access to equipment, coaching resources, and a growing national network of collegiate foiling teams. Together, we can position your university at the forefront of modern sailing — offering students a direct connection from college competition to the highest levels of performance foiling in North America.

Next Steps

Step One

Connect With Us

Begin by reaching out to the USFoil team — share a short overview of your program, coaching structure, and foiling ambitions. We’ll walk you through how the program works, answer your questions, and set a meeting to align on your goals and timeline.

Step Two

Activate Existing Resources

If your program already has WASZPs or any foiling boards on site, we’ll send coaches to help you activate them. Our team will work with your sailors and staff to set up the equipment and run initial sessions so your existing foiling assets become fully usable right away.

Step Three

Schedule A First Clinic

Bring USFoil coaches and equipment to your venue for a tailored introductory clinic. Sailors get structured instruction with USFoil boats and boards, hands-on learning, and their first flights — setting the stage for ongoing foiling development.

Step Four

Apply To Become A Hub

Once your program is ready to take the next step, you can apply to become an official USFoil Hub. Hubs serve as regional centers for foiling, hosting clinics, supporting development, and anchoring the collegiate foiling network with loaner assets.

Step Five

Finalize Equipment Assignment

We’ll work with you to match your team with the right equipment package — expanding your foiling fleet or filling gaps — so your program can train consistently throughout the year.

Step Six

Launch Annual Programming

With foiling equipment, coaching support, and a clear framework in place, your team can run a sustainable foiling program. Regular practice, cross-training, and racing opportunities build momentum and long-term athlete development.

Podium Support

Supporting Your Athletes In Competing For A National Title

USFoil partners directly with college sailing programs to give coaches the tools, structure, and support they need to guide their sailors toward the College Foiling National Championship. Our role is to strengthen your coaching staff — providing detailed training plans, skill-progression frameworks, and race-specific preparation that can be incorporated into your existing program.

For coaches who are new to foiling, we offer on-the-water support during select sessions to help them understand equipment setup, flight fundamentals, and the key performance factors that matter at the championship level. We also collaborate with coaches on athlete evaluations, seasonal planning, and tactical development so they can confidently lead their sailors through qualification and peak performance.

Throughout the year, USFoil coaches are available at major foiling events to reinforce what your athletes are learning at home — ensuring continuity, momentum, and a unified push toward championship-winning results.
