  • Encouraging a friendly atmosphere for all social activities

BSC History

Before 1960, sailing was almost unknown as a sport in the Birmingham area, except for a few enthusiasts who were willing to travel for two hours or more in order to visit North Alabama.

The club was incorporated in June, 1963 with 44 Charter Members. Many of the members had very little sailing experience, with Sam Caldwell serving as the first Commodore, or leader of the group.

Today, the club boats nearly 150 members.

Importance of the BSC

The Birmingham Sailing Club offers many educational course, events and fun with racing.

There are educational courses that take place at this club including Junior Sailing classes and general classes. The Junior Sailing Camp is open to children who are 8 to 17-years-old.

Each child learns how to or improve basic sailing skills while using Optimist sailboats, Club 420’s and Lasers.

The wonderful thing about the club is that they not only offer classes for the young ones but for adults as well.

They also hold safety classes on the water to help ensure that there are no accidents with their members.
