Post Playoff Championship Results
The Team Racing Championship Final will be help on 13th -15th April 2020 at Grafham Water Sailing Club, hosted by Cambridge University
Senior BUSA officers met by conference call last night to discuss with the Technical Delegates and BUCS the feasibility of running the Team Racing Finals in the current climate. Having considered the latest UK Government advice and the decision of the Royal Yachting Association to postpone or cancel all RYA events up to the end of April, the decision has been taken to cancel the Finals. Given the limited time remaining in the academic year, it will not be possible to re-schedule the Finals.
We would like to thank Cambridge and Graham Water for all their work planning for the Finals and BUSA looks forward to the 2020/2021 season.
