Welcome to my Introduction to Race Committee course! Volunteering on the race committee is a fun way to support local sailing and enjoy front row seats to the racing action. Upon completion of this course you will be emailed a certificate. Please remember to click on the 'complete' button after each lesson so you can keep track of your progress and receive your certificate once all lessons are marked as complete.

To the get the most out of this course, I recommend you purchase a copy Racing Rules of Sailing and print out the example Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions used in this lesson. US Sailing members may download the Racing Rules app. I will be referencing the rules and these racing documents throughout the course. If you want to dig in, pause the video and read the appropriate rule or relevant section in the race documents.
