Junior Racing is Back for 2020!
Junior Racing had several sailors join the team last year and they are back for more fun in 2020! Junior Racing is a great way for young sailors (ages 12 to 19) to continue expanding their sailing experience and knowledge while enjoying some competition in a friendly and inclusive atmosphere. We are looking for additional teammates, including sailors with basic skills that they can continue building upon. The team is currently sailing single-handed Laser class sailboats, allowing for distancing, and the team has several Lasers available for use.
Coach Siri Schantz will be using her extensive local and national racing experience with lasers and 420’s to continue the team’s upward trajectory this season. While the regattas that Junior Racing planned to compete in this year were cancelled, a number of events are now being planned, including at Hoover Sailing Club and LYC!
Please contact the LYC Junior Racing Committee Chair if you have interest or questions about participating in Junior Racing this season or in the future. We hope to have you join us!
