David Graham, World Sailing CEO, said: "Everyone at World Sailing is deeply disappointed by the cancellation of the ANOC World Beach Games and we know that disappointment is shared by the Association of National Olympic Committees.
"My thanks go to the World Sailing and Wingfoil Racing officials who had worked hard to make the sailing competition at the ANOC World Beach Games possible.
"In particular, I want to acknowledge that this will be especially disappointing for the athletes who were looking forward to competing, and had spent so much time and energy preparing for what would have been a wonderful event."
