2012 TEAM RACING PROGRAM

 

NYYC's 2012 Team Racing season is shaping up as another busy one with 'away' regattas beginning this winter. As always, our program is aimed at the full range of our membership: young members to masters, novice to expert. Please feel free to contact Beth Duggan in the Sailing Office if you are interested in learning more about the program.

Here is a summary of what you can look forward to:

Long Island Sound Summer Solstice Series
This series of weekday evening team racing in supplied boats at different clubs on Long Island Sound was expanded successfully over the past few years and will continue to offer many opportunities to participate for Club members in the Western Long Island Sound area. Stay tuned for more details.  REGISTER

 

Team Racing Kick-Off Weekend - May 19-20

Team racing experience is NOT required! This weekend is targeted at sailors with all levels of experience to come learn the basics of team racing or to sharpen skills, both in the classroom and on the water in the Club's fleet of Sonars.

 

NYYC's top team racers and teachers will be sharing their talents with participants and cover rules, tactics, boathandling tips and hands-on racing. And, of course, there is a fun social schedule throughout the weekend. Whether you know a lot or a little about team racing, this will be a great event to attend, so be sure to put this exciting weekend on your schedule!  REGISTER

 

Regular Season Team Racing
There is something for everyone, casual and intense, home and away. Home events are run in our fleet of thirteen Sonars at Harbour Court. This year we will send teams to events in New Orleans, St. Petersburg YC in Florida, Newport Harbor YC in California, as well as many away events in the northeast.

 

Team NYYC Volunteers
This program is designed for the member who wants a casual introduction to the way the Club works. Whether for a weekend or a day, we can always use your help and it is a fun way to learn about the sport and the greatest Club in the world.

 

Club Team Racing Championship - Oct. 13-14

The second annual Club team racing championship is scheduled for Oct. 13-14. Details will be posted on the event web page that will be linked here.
