10% of my daughters squad is non white and our club has a diverse palette of non English accents. I think we have discussed it before but most people got into sailing through previous generations of their family so by extension someone arriving in the uk two generations ago has probably had other priorities rather than exploring new sports. I think there are a lot of people experiencing sailing through RYA schemes and Andrew Simpson centres which will address the imbalance.
