Optimist Team Green Fleet

About Optimist Team Green Fleet

While the main focus of Green Fleet is racing, there is also a healthy component of fun involved with a strong emphasis on team building and sportsmanship. Regattas are outlined within the Parent Handbook and the required regattas are highlighted, with all other regattas being optional. A minimum of five sailors is required for SYS to sponsor the regatta with coach support. Some sailors choose to attend all events, others only choose to attend the required regattas.
