Applications open 14 July 2026 for the 2027 Performance Sailcraft ILCA Under-21 World Championships, to be held 10–17 January 2027 at Sandringham, Melbourne.
As the host nation, Australia has been allocated additional places for this championship, with the final number depending on demand from other countries.
Australian applicants will be offered places in ranking order, based on results from the 2026 Australian Championships in Hobart, as outlined in our June 2025 ILCA Australia post.
Didn’t sail in Hobart? You can still apply! Sailors who didn’t compete at the 2026 Australian Championships will be ranked after those who did, in the order applications are received.
This is a once-in-a-career opportunity to race an Under-21 World Championship on home waters. Don’t miss it!
Applications open at 00:01 US Central Time on 14 July 2026.
