US Sailing, the US Sailing Team Racing Committee and Stanford University are proud to announce the U.S. qualifying regatta for the U.S. “Under-21” berth at the 2007 ISAF Team Racing World Championship, to be held in West Kirby, England in August 20-25, 2007. The qualifier, hosted in sunny California, will be run out of Stanford University’s world-class Morrison Boathouse, in FJ’s, on March 17-18, 2007. NOR and application form (entries will be limited to 10 teams and will be selected via resume if necessary) will be distributed shortly.

AGE REQUIREMENT: All team members must be over 15 years of age on 31 December 2007 – i.e. born 1992 or earlier, and all team members must be under 21 years of age on 31 December 2007 – i.e. born 1987 or later.

This is a unique opportunity for youth, high school and under-21 collegiate sailors to compete in a high-profile and competitive national team racing event, and attempt to qualify for an ISAF world championship. Teams are not required to be from the same school or club, but must be U.S. nationals.

“This is an excellent opportunity for young up and coming sailors to gain some big regatta experience,” says Mitch Brindley, the president of ICSA. “I would like to wish all the competitors the best of luck in qualifying for and competing in the ISAF World Team Racing Championship.”

Please note this event conflicts with the Truxton Umstead regatta at Navy.
