OTHER SRS EVENTS COMING SOON
 
The new dates for the 2021 City of Perth Festival of Sail and City of Perth Youth Cup directly clashed with numerous WA University exam periods. The majority of competitors for the 2021 City of Perth Youth Cup are University Students and would not be able to compete in the regatta if the dates were to stay as Tuesday 13 Friday 16 April 2021.
For this reason, Swan River Sailing is bringing the regatta forward by 1 week, which will also result in an extension of dates for the 2021 City of Perth Festival of Sail. The two Corporate/Networking Events (Corporate Cup and Women on Water) associated with the City of Perth Festival of Sail will remain on their current dates.



FULL SCHEDULE HERE >>
 

ONE MONTH TO GO! It's time to mix the legends, the youth, and the female sailors to dispute the title of the best Team Club in Western Australian Waters onboard the Swan River Sailing Foundation 36 fleet. 

2021 Inter-Club Championships | 16th, 17th, and 18th April
