ISSA News

Site Assignments: The field is set for the 2024 O'Day Qualifiers.  Everyone should know where they will be sailing by now, but here is the link to the site assignments

Tech Score: Here are the links to each regatta site on Tech Score. Today is the day to make sure that all of the sailors that you plan to use are listed in your team database in the NESSA directory.  If they are in there today, they should appear in the Tech Score Data base by tomorrow.

Sailing Instructions are now posted on the O'Day Quals website.  You will notice that they are purposely short.  That is because a lot of information is already captured in the ISSA Procedural Rules.  Coaches should have a working knowledge of this document.  If you are confused, ask the NESSA Rep at your site.  Ther are certain things that trip up even veteran coaches in the ISSA Procedural Rules. 

• Competitors ISS PR 1.2

• Responsible Adult ISS PR 1,3

  • PFD 2.2

  • Team Uniforms (pinnies) 2.4

NESSA Reps:  The NESSA Rep is the Liaison between the coaches and the RC.  If you have questions, comments, or concerns, need help filling out your RP forms, questions on substitutions, etc., they are the first person to ask.  For this weekend, these are the NESSA Reps.
