Laser Race Team – Ages 13-18
The Laser Race Team is designed for sailors looking to take the next step in their racing journey by competing in the highly competitive Northwest Youth Racing Circuit (NWYRC). This program focuses on refining boat handling, tactics, and race strategy in the ILCA (Laser) class, one of the most widely raced singlehanded boats in the world. Whether you’re working toward high-level competition or simply want to improve your sailing skills, this team offers top-notch coaching and challenging training sessions.
Who Should Join?
The Laser Race Team is open to sailors ages 13-18 who have prior sailing experience and are eager to develop their racing skills. This program is perfect for those transitioning from Optis or doublehanded boats who want to focus on singlehanded racing.
