A registered charity, we are a thriving watersports training centre based in the Thames Valley, with a spectacular 200 acre lake where both participants and spectators are welcome. We are passionate about water sports and want to inspire as many people as possible.

SAILING : Come and learn to sail either on weekdays or on Saturdays - you'll be amazed at how quickly you will progress. We are delighted that many people return for more lessons and gain such high levels of achievement. We offer an excellent range of courses; all are inclusive of equipment costs and log books are provided on beginner courses.

STAND UP PADDLE BOARDING : Is easy, fun, sociable and everybody can do it. It provides a fun way to race, and keep fit by improving endurance, core stability and balance. The whole family (from 8 years old) can get involved, so why not give it a go? We also have two 8 person megaboards which can be used to race, for teambuilding or to just enjoy a group paddle around the lake.

POWERBOATING : A very versatile skill to have, powerboating can be enjoyed as an activity in its own right or as a support to other water sports activities. As a recreational activity, it can be enjoyed all over the world - exploring secluded beaches and hidden coves, embarking on an expedition or racing to get that adrenaline rush. It is also useful as a support for other activities such as waterskiing, wakeboarding, diving, parascending or providing safety cover for sailing clubs.

We will do our best to offer you new challenges and experiences, while maintaining the high levels of instruction you expect from the centre. BST also run fun activity sessions for youth groups and schools, and don't forget we can also arrange parties for youngsters or for hen/stag groups.
