The club sails all the year round. Racing takes place on Sundays and in the summer months there is organised sailing  most Wednesday evenings. The main classes of dinghy sailed are Bytes, Toppers, Comets, Herons, and Lasers but any boat with a Portsmouth Yardstick rating and under 14'- 6" in length is acceptable. Racing on a handicap basis is organised with two races on Sunday morning; the first starting at 10:30 am

.. The lake has five fixed marks for course setting and, at the Race Duty Officer's discretion, a special mark may be added. Througout the year racing is structured with race points contributing to two Winter Series and two Summer Series.  Each race is planned to last approximately 45 minutes with a coffee break after the first race.

There are also a number of  trophy races through the year (Charity Trophy, Pond Pounders Pot, Icicle Trophy, Easter Egg Trophy, Mini Cup Pursuit, Commodores Cup, Midsummer Regatta, Jubilee Trophy, Firebug Pursuit Race, Croydon Armada, Golden Shackle, Championship Shield) Members are, as a requirement of membership, expected to take their turn as Race Duty Officer and/or Assistant Race Duty Officer
