The Royal St George Yacht Club are hosting the President’s Cup and Hansa Nationals 17th & 18TH August 2019.
The President’s Cup and Hansa Nationals (inaugurated by Paralympian John Twomey) is an Irish interprovincial regatta. This year the provinces will comprise teams of 2 squibs, a Hansa and a 2.4m sailed by athletes from Sailability and WeSail. Some may have buddies. This is the major national event for Sailability with two fleets. We aim to make it a memorable weekend for both the 30 plus competitors and for the club. Come on down during the weekend to see some of the action!
We would also be grateful to any member who would be prepared to volunteer to do one of the many tasks be it shoreside, crewing a rib or helping behind the scenes. Volunteer instructors and buddies to go out with some of the competitors are needed. Contact ianafrench2@gmail.com or cjhenman@gmail.com
Please complete the Application form in good time.
We also need to know well in advance if and how many buddies are needed for which boats in each Province.

Youth Team Racing Training
2019-08-21 17:00 - 22:00, 2019-08-28 17:00 - 22:00 | Royal St George Yacht Club, Dun Laoghaire, Dublin, Dublin, A96 AY77, Ireland
It’s that time of year again when we start to think about Team Racing for our youth sailors. We will be holding training sessions every Wednesday evening starting this Wednesday (July 17th) and we would like to encourage as many sailors (aged 14 – 19) as possible to join in. We would ask that sailors be down in the club by 5pm to get the club fireflys rigged and be ready to get out on the water by around 6pm.
The idea of the training is to get as many young people as possible involved in team racing – those who have sailed on club or school teams in the past, been involved on Oppie team racing and want to move on to the firefly, those who did the TY team racing during the winter or those who just want to give it a go and see what its all about. We will be holding a session every Wednesday between now and the end of August, in preparation for the Elmo Trophy. We appreciate that lots of people are/will be away on holidays or at the various sailing events but try to make it down whenever possible. There will be a small cost for the training sessions to cover the use of the boats and ribs (€10 per session). There will be a payment form on the club website.
This year, the Elmo Trophy YouthTeam Racing event will be held on September 7th/8th. Last year we had 4 RSGYC teams, and we would be happy to have even more if the interest is there.
