Do you know a young sailor who demonstrates the spirit and ethos of world sailing?
Minty, the beloved mascot of the Mintridge Foundation is searching for a young sailor aged between 7 and 14 to receive 6 months of remote mentoring with Professional Sailor, Hannah Diamond thanks to the magnificent team at Bsporty.
“In Aarhus we hit speeds of 98.2km/hr or 53 knots in one of the training races, which is pretty much as fast as boats go at the moment!”
Do you know a worthy young person, who has demonstrated World Sailing values throughout the past year?
We would love to hear from you; the parents, carers, coaches, teachers and teammates. We want to hear all about the young people that have showcased being proactive, collaboration, integrity, team spirit, resilience, ambition, resourcefulness or flexibility.
We will share and highlight the best stories on our online platforms and the best part of all is that two lucky and very worthy winners will receive six months of remote mentoring in a safeguarded environment with professional sailor, Hannah Diamond. Learning from Hannah, who just this year has been part of the Women’s Pathway Programme (WPP) involved in Sail GP and attended two of the events with the British team, will leave a lasting legacy for these individuals and their sailing journey.
Also included in this sensational sailing prize will be:
Mentee Goody Bag which includes a Mintridge gift.

The Mintridge Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to enhancing life skills in young people through sport. We provide a support network for young people by harnessing the power of positive sporting role models. The Mintridge Foundation assists young people of all ages, abilities and physical capabilities to develop confidence and resilience, and creates awareness of the importance of mental and physical wellbeing through sport.
Our team of Ambassadors - Olympians, Paralympians and other professional sports stars from over 20 sports, both team and individual - work with young people in schools, clubs and academies across the UK. Starting with visits including assemblies, coaching clinics and classroom sessions tailored to each organisation’s requirements, our ambassadors can then provide one- on- one remote mentoring in a safeguarded environment, delivered via technology such as Fitswarm and Playwaze to build a lasting legacy for individuals.
The Mintridge Foundation’s successes demonstrate the incredible power of sport; from a mentee’s selection to represent Great Britain in their chosen field to enabling disabled children to find confidence and happiness just through participation. Understanding life after sport, we also support our Ambassadors in their transition from active sport to the next stage of their careers.
