Irish Sailing are delighted to announce that Kinsale Yacht Club will host the biannual Race Officials Conference 2026. Kinsale Yacht Club is an ideal venue to host the event, with a wealth of experience in hosting many events both on and off the water over the years. Our particular thanks go out to Anthony O'Neill, Commodore at KYC for his support in hosting this years conference.
Conference is scheduled for Saturday 14th November 2026 and we are expecting somewhere between 80 to100 Race Officials to attend. A race Officials dinner will be held in Kinsale Yacht Club on the Saturday evening which represents an ideal opportunity for Race Officials to swap stories, ideas and to learn.
Kinsale has plenty of accommodation options, and we are delighted that the Trident Hotel and Acton’s hotel have both come onboard with some first come first served promotional rates for the weekend. Further details will be sent to Race Officials directly in the next ROPG newsletter.
