Interested in going to the British Nationals ? Entry now open.

The British Nationals will be held this year in Weymouth from the 25th July to the 30th July.
Weymouth is 2012 Olympic Venue.
 
This is a unique opportunity to sail in a really competitive International Regatta with an excess of 500 sailors IODAI as in years past will send their under 12 squad but this is just not for the Under12 Squad.
There is a very strong Regatta Fleet component with an emphasis on both fun sailing and numbering some 200 boats in years past.
 
The Senior division will bring together the best Sailors in England and International Teams from overseas
The event is particurarly well organised and I can say this from personal experience as this will be my 3rd UK Nationals.
 
Last Year was perhaps the High Light when the Irish Group sang The Fields of Athenry after Cian Byrnre from RCYC lifted 1st Prize in Junior Under 12 division.
 
This is a fun family week with something for everyone and is the best preparation possible for the Irish Nationals.
 
Avoid the Dust and take the family on the Ferrry from Dublin or Cork. Please contact Niamh Hopkins at nhopkins@tcd.ie to avail of a discounted ferry rate from stenaline.
 
Registeration is now available online at the following link http://www.kbsuk.com/Optimist/IOCAEvents/index.asp?EventID=26
