Cowes Week Limited, organisers of Cowes Week, have announced a partnership with another famous sailing regatta, Antigua Sailing Week, to support young sailors at the event.
CWL have previously announced their youth initiative, which offers discounted entry fees to boats with crews of under 25 year olds. Cowes Week Ltd is again offering the first 25 crews to enter, who are all under age 25 at the time of the regatta, a 50 per cent discount on the entry fee. The sooner teams sign up, the more chance there is of securing one of the highly desirable discounted places.
This is an opportunity to really put the spotlight on young sailors, offering encouragement and highlighting their successes. The day will culminate in a Caribbean party for all registered competitors aged under 25.
Teams wishing to take advantage of discounted entry fees should make their entry as soon as possible by contacting the Regatta Office at entries@cowesweek.co.uk / 01983 295744 or visiting the website www.cowesweek.co.uk.
