Canadian Sailing Team Panel Discussion Q&A
Sail Canada is excited to invite you to attend our webinar series with the Canadian Sailing Team. While we cannot be on the water yet, join us for this seminar where some of Canada’s best athletes will share their story, how they got to where they are now, tips and strategies on how they increased performance on the water, and hear about their plans for the 2021 Olympic games.
Helly Hansen Sailor of the Month Katie Coleman
It’s been no secret that we have been thrown into a tumultuous ride. Stopping regular life as we knew it and being forced to stay home put a huge wrench into society and plans that have been made over the years.
While sailing regattas started getting canceled, courses getting postponed, and boat parks being closed, there was not much left to do. For Katie Coleman, she saw this time as an opportunity to help sailors brush up on basic skills, enhance knowledge and keep the sport at the forefront of our brains.
This National Judge and Umpire has been hosting a series of Zoom meetings with sailing Judges from different parts of the country. The idea of these meetings is to keep skills sharp, share thoughts and experiences.
