After much talk and discussion, university sailing has been approved as a sport to join the 2010 Australian University Games in Perth. This is a great development for university sailing in Australia and will allow for the continued development of the sport in the 18+ category.

University Fleet Racing Championship
The 2010 Australian University Fleet Racing Championship was held at Great Lakes Sailing Club, just south of Forster on the NSW coast in April this year. The event is held each year in the first semester of the year during the common mid semester break. Details of the 2011 event will be released closer to the event. The event is run under the yard stick system so any sailing boat or board can complete. For more details, go to: http://www.usydsailing.com/home/?q=node/222
