A reminder that the entry fee for the Nationals will increase from £199 to £249 on 20th September. With 31 entries and counting, don't delay to enter before the price increases!

The long-awaited Fireball Nationals is taking place at Hayling Island Sailing Club, from 30th September to 3rd October 2021. HISC is running this event alongside the 505 Eurocup, meaning there's going to be a real buzz both on and off the water!

To enter and for more information please visit the this page on the Fireball website.

We're incredibly fortunate to have support from our main sponsors, Gul, and further prizes donated by UKGlobal, Hyde Sails, Ropelocker and North Sails.

The UKFA would like to thank all our Fireball sailors who have waited so patiently for this event and we can't wait to all meet up in just under 2 weeks!
