The PCISA board met last night (3-16-21). We want you to be aware of schedule changes, a requirement for teams wishing to participate in team racing and other important items. 

With many programs returning to the water full time this week, it's time for an update on what to expect this spring season on the NWISA level:

The spring sailing season continues to be a moving target.  On 3/4, the ISSA board approved three spring events. And last night (3/11), the NESSA ExComm votes to adjust the NESSA schedule (see below).  

The PCISA Board met on the evening of 2-18-2021. Unfortunately, they voted unanimously to cancel the scheduled Single-handed events for March. The current State and County Guidelines do not yet allow for multi-team (more than 2) sporting competitions, and events with teams from multiple Counties are severely restricted. It was noted that things are changing somewhat rapidly (including some new Guidelines for Youth Sport Events from the CA State Health Dept. on 2-19-21), and the PCISA Board remains committed to holding High School Sailing Events this Spring but will only do so in compliance with State, County, and local requirements.  If Covid-19 tracking numbers continue in the current positive direction; in the coming weeks, more Counties should begin moving through the CA State Covid-19 Tier System, and thus more activities should be allowed. And, as more CIF Sports become eligible to compete, we are hopeful that some restrictions will be lifted. PCISA will continue to monitor the State, County, and local guidelines and attempt to adapt our schedule and events, and advise our constituents as soon as possible. To maximize the possibility of holding events, some of the ‘Go – No Go” dates have been moved closer to the preliminarily scheduled events.

Please see the updated (2-19-2021) Preliminary Draft Spring 2021 PCISA Calendar.

Happy February!  As the temperatures hover around zero, it is hard to imagine that high school sailing could be coming soon. But hopefully before we know it, both the ice and the virus will be receding. Click here to see the email update sent out to our mailing list on February 6.
