We are preparing kids for the biggest event in the World. Crazy Starts, big line with 3 Race Committee vessels, big leverages and risks, high level sailors, unique in the world sailing conditions…we could list infinite aspects to describe this event that can be difficult but at least one life time experience.
This is why we can call this Clinic a RACING CLINIC WITH FOCUS ON BOAT HANDLING.
Our Team have big experience on Lake Garda and in Running Big Clinics.
Everything we do has already been tested in past events and all people were happy and learnt a lot.
- Sailors can be split into groups that will rotate with all Top 4 Coaches for the specific drills.
- Groups can be together with 2 top coaches for other drills.
- Sailors will sail all together training races, drills by trophies or exercises where is request the big number of sailors all together.
- No complaints accepted on groups composition that will change everyday or more than one time in a day
We have lot of material of past Optimist Champions on Lake Garda to show to kids and improve their skills. Other coaches will help us for safety and for better quality trainings.
TECHNICAL MANAGEMENT and SAFETY for the RACE GARDA MEETING
Simone Ricci will be supervisor and responsible of briefings / debriefings.
Jonas and Riccardo will be the official Coaches of Atlantis Academy group in water during the race. Everyday in base to numbers we will assign the groups by colors of the fleets to a Coach.
(Exemple: Yellow and Blu Fleet with Jonas, Red and Green Fleet with Riccardo). In this way we can assist better kids in the prestart and after the race.
Safety comes first and in this way we can have a better control of the kids.
Cadetti Sailors can be allocated with local team sailors, and other AA Coaches (depends from numbers and if the Organizers will make 1 course for all groups or 2 different courses). For exemple: in case of a protest, request of redress, scoring inquiry the Coaches for AA Group are Jonas and Riccardo. If you want to register a Cadetti (2013 2014) first text us please.
Simone and Mauro will be there with their teams assisting Atlantis Academy sailors when necessary and sharing tips and feedbacks and local knowledge.
All 4 of our Expert Coaches will be connected by VHF to share strategy and safety.
Simone will make briefing and debriefing together with Mauro, Jonas and Riccardo about the day.
All sailors will be provided of tracking system METASAIL by the organizers and this will make it still safer.
Past year, in the 2022 edition Atlantis Academy Sailors took a silver medal with Alessandro Cirinei from Italy and a Bronze Medal with Levi Bernhardtz from Sweden.
