Entry process
Entries need to be submitted on BUCScore, our online entry system.
Please speak to your Athletic Union as they will need to submit your
entry on this system, and it is their responsibility to manage the whole
entry process.
Each team’s individuals should be entered / sorted into Helm & Crew
order as per the following example: Team X: Helm-Crew, Helm-Crew,
Helm-Crew
So for the sort order will be: 1 = 1st Helm & 2 = 1st Crew; 3 = 2nd
Helm & 4 = 2nd crew; 5 = 3rd Helm & 6 = 3rd Crew.
Please note: An email address is required to enable an individual to be entered effectively within BUCScore as the system uses email addresses as unique identifiers. The email address used for each entrant must be unique to maintain validity of their entry. Changing or duplicating an email address for an entrant may result in the entry being overwritten and therefore withdrawn.
As part of the entry process we will be collecting mobile phone numbers and email addresses to use solely for the purpose of communicating key event information as required. Please note these details will be shared with BUSA, who are running the event on behalf of BUCS, but will only be used for critical event information and will not be passed to any third parties.

Reserves – BUCS Sailing Universal Reserve List 2016-17
There is a single reserve list for ALL BUCS Sailing events in the
2016-17 Season. This is listed on BUCScore as a separate Sailing
‘Individual Entry Set’: BUCS Sailing Universal Reserve List 2016-17.
Sailors will need to be entered onto this by the following deadlines to
be eligible for each stage of the Team Racing Championships and MUST be
registered before requesting any substitution(s):
Scottish Qualifiers: League 1: Thursday 10th November 2016; League 2:
Thursday 19th January 2017; League 3: Thursday 19th January 2017
Northern/Midland/South Central/Western Qualifiers: Thursday 19th January 2017
Playoffs: Thursday 16th February 2017
Finals: Thursday 16th March 2017
Institutions are strongly advised to register as many reserves as possible on BUCScore when making entries as no further competitors can be added after the deadline for each event and only those students listed on BUCScore and subsequently the master reserve list can compete in any stage of the championships. The existing reserves previously registered for earlier events in the 2016-17 season remain available for all subsequent events.
Confidential Medical Form 2016-17
ALL sailors planning to enter BUCS/BUSA Sailing Championships this year
need to complete the Confidential Medical Form 2016-17. This is a
requirement for registration at all BUCS/BUSA Sailing Championships. It
is recommended that potential competitors should complete this at an
early stage by going to the online
Confidential Medical Form, found here.
Disability access
Disabled access sailors should contact BUSA ([email protected]) before
they enter, so we can assess that we and the club/venue have adequate
support in place.
