Youth Foiling Club Programme – Youth America’s Cup

The Royal St. George Yacht Club is excited to announce its support of a new & ambitious
concept Youth Foiling Club Programme with the goal of being Ireland’s first ever team in the
Youth America’s Cup.

The Youth Foiling initiative led by Club member and foiling champion, Charlie Cullen, plans to be a catalyst to increase foiling participation. It aims to provide a possible pathway for U25 athletes in Ireland into professional sailing with the ultimate goal to produce Ireland’s first-ever Youth America’s Cup sailors in Barcelona 2024. This aims to be an all-Ireland programme, taking a gender-equal approach.

If you are an Irish sailor, born after the 12th of October 1998 and want to get involved, send your sailing CV and a short motivational letter to sailingmanager@rsgyc.ie

Applications close 16th of January 2023.
