As of 1/31/21 under the CA Dept. of Health Guidelines (and thus High School Sports including CIF & PCISA), the PCISA Board believes that Single-handed Sailing Competition can be allowed under the Purple Tier 1 (Widespread) of the CA Blueprint for a Safer Economy/Covid-19 Plan. Doubled-Handed Competitions are not permitted until the Orange Tier 3 (Moderate).

The HS Sailing Board continues to meet monthly to keep abreast of the national situation and attempt to plan our schedule given sailors can get back on the water.

See the schedule below:

• Mallory (Double-handed Dinghy National Championships) - June 5-6, 2021 in Cleveland, OH
• Baker (Team Racing National Championships) – May 22-23, 2021 in Miami, FL
• ISSA will attempt to schedule the Cressy (Single-handed National Championship) this Spring – stay tuned.

ISSA has published the new ISSA Official Procedural Rules for 2021-2024 and these are being mailed out to schools registered in the 2020 year.  Please see this helpful guide: “Study Guide Version-Highlighting Changes”

We would highly recommend that ALL sailors and coaches review these rules carefully. 

Attention SAISA Sailors!

The Leadership of SAISA met last evening and voted to finalize a regatta schedule to get the 2020/2021 SAISA HS Sailing season started.   Both the North and South Points Series will be comprised of 4 regattas of which the top 3 will count towards qualifying for the district championship and the Caribbean will use SP’s 1 as its SAISA Mallory Fleet Race qualifier.   The Regatta schedule will be as follows:

We wanted to give our PCISA Member Schools, sailors, coaches and parents an update on High School Sailing plans for Spring 2021. Obviously, things in CA (and around the world) remain complicated and ever-changing. Likely, there will be changes, so please stay tuned. We will continue to make every effort to host High School Sailing Events this Spring!

We will have a brief annual district meeting via zoom to close out the year, together with a regular meeting of the MISSA District Committee.  Monday, December 28th at 7 p.m. Central Time. All are welcome to attend, only primary admins of active schools may vote. The link to join the meeting is posted here.
