Irish Match Racing is in full swing especially as we head into December.
Open European Championship 5-9 December 2023 - Bedanne, France.
Youth Match Racing World Championships 9-15 December – Sydney, Australia
World Match Racing Tour Final 12-17 December – Shenzhen, China
Ruairi Finnegan and his team Craic'n Racing will be stopping off in France before they head to China for the Final series of the Year of the World Match Racing Tour. He is joined by Ryan Fitzgerald, Noah McCarthy and Dan Little.
Tom Higgins is the second helm travelling abroad as he heads to the Youth Match Racing Worlds in Sydney. Tom started his match racing journey competing at the Governors Cup in Los Angeles over the summer and even stepped aboard the Craic'n Racing team for their Chicago and Thompson Cup events.
Tom is joined by Fiona Ferguson, Jamie McMahon and one other Australian sailors. This will be the first time Ireland is represented at this event and we are very excited to see the progression of Irish teams in this part of the sport.
And finally a culmination of UCD, TCD and TUD sailors are set to head to Copenhagen for the KDY Xmas Match Racing Cup. Adam Leddy, Ben Lumley, Oisin Cullen, Kate O'Connor and Evan Smith will be taking on this challenge.
Ruairi Finnegan has paved the way for Irish Teams on the world Tour, while Tom takes up the mantle for the youth circuit only leaving us eager to now find an all Female Irish Team.
