Running the League
With the improved fleet of team racing boats now available, we have set up a league, similar to a football league, where competitors sail against others of a similar level. This is a great opportunity for SSSC to develop the expertise and harness the enthusiasm for team racing that has surfaced again recently and we hope to get as many members as possible involved in at all levels, from beginners to advanced and Juniors to Seniors.
Each league will compete in a series of 10 races on a Saturday, taking about 2 1/2 hours.
After each days racing, the top 2 would move up a league while the bottom 2 would move down. This should ensure that less experienced racers are not intimidated, more experienced helms don’t get bored and improving sailors move up.
The races will be umpired by someone from one of the top leagues, and volunteers will be needed to start & finish races. All competitors will be required to help and this will be in addition to normal club duties.
You can find the current league table and racing dates above. If you can’t make your league day, please arrange for a replacement and let the OOD know. Remember, we need 12 people to race!!!
If you are interested in joining the league or have any questions / suggestions please get in touch.
Happy racing!!!
