Sail in JSA’s McIntyre Team Race!

If you enjoy competitive fleet racing, you’re going to love team racing! The JSA of LIS Team Race Championship for the Malcolm McIntyre Trophy is a great opportunity for JSA sailors to develop team racing skills while having fun with their teammates. Gear up with friends from your JSA  junior program to compete against other JSA programs – ask your coach to register you today.

The McIntyre Trophy regatta features racing in the swift current of the East River at SUNY Maritime College, Bronx, NY, on Saturday and Sunday July 24-25, 2021.

Top-notch college coaches and umpires are a great reason to attend the McIntyre regatta:

  • College Sailing Hall of Fame coach Ken Legler from Tufts University and head coach Zach Runci from SUNY Maritime College will run the regatta.
  • Umpires include 2021 College Sailing Team Race Nationals Umpire Tony Weiner, and 2021 All-American Women’s Skippers Michelle Lahrkamp (Stanford) and Ciara Rodriguez-Horan (Tulane).

 

If you want to compete, be sure to ask your junior program to make arrangements for its team of six sailors by end of day Wednesday July 21.  All you need to bring is your personal sailing gear and lunch. SUNY Maritime provides its collegiate rigged 420 boats, and your junior program provides a coach with a support boat for each team. View the Notice of Race and register through the JSA of LIS calendar.

If your club’s junior program has more than six sailors available, you may be able register multiple teams. Or, if your program has fewer than six sailors available, you may combine sailors from your program with another club’s program to form a mixed-club team of six sailors.

Do you want to compete in the McIntyre Trophy Team Race Championship? Talk with your head instructor and have your team registered by end of day July 21. Or email to JSA office info@jsalis.org to see if we can help match you in combined teams of six sailors from various clubs.

We hope to see you at SUNY Maritime College on Saturday and Sunday July 24-25!
