Help get the Nelson College for Girls Team Sailors to Sydney to defend their title !
Support Nelson College for Girls to defend their Inter dominion Championship title at the Royal Sydney Yacht Club in September in 2023.
Nelson
Our girls are the current Inter-dominion (Australia v New Zealand) secondary school team sailing champions and have once again qualified to compete in this annual Interdominion Schools Team Sailing championship.
Our Nelson girls are the only South Island based team to qualify for the event !
As much as we relish the opportunity to head to the prestigious Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron in September, we are now faced with the mammoth task of raising in the order of $25,000 within the next three months to enable 7 team members, their coach and team manager to travel to Sydney to defend the “Interdominion Schools Team Sailing” title.
About us
Nelson College for Girls is a public school in Nelson.
Use of funds
The money raised will go towards the cost of flights and accommodation as we are not eligible to apply for grant funding for this.

THANK YOU 22 August 2023
Our Give a little campaign has come to an end and we would like to thank all of you who have made a donation. Overall, we have had 40 donation and have raised $4650. On top of this, we have held a Quiz night together with an auction where we managed to raise a further $8000. We are now in the final stages of fundraising with one last big raffle to go which will end on 15th September and we are planning on earning at least $3000 with that. This means that altogether we will have earned nearly $16000 of the total cost of $22000. This makes it affordable for each of us and would not have happened without your support.
We have been training at the yacht club 2 to 3 days a week/weather permitting and are organizing for one last big training weekend 16th/17th of September together with the other Nelson Sailing Teams. We will be updating photos and videos of training and the competition via our NCG Sailing Instagram page.
Once again - thank you for your support!
