Practice
High school sailing at LMSS provides a team atmosphere where sailors represent their school during the fall and spring seasons. With practices and regattas tailored to various levels of experience and competition, this popular after-school activity is a perfect way to extend sailing beyond the summer.
Fall is the perfect time for those new to the sport and all returning athletes wanting to focus on skill development. Spring is dedicated to our Varsity season, which is competitive and race specific. We ask that sailors have prior sailing experience before joining teams in the Spring.
Fees for high school sailing include coaching and supported participation in MISSA scheduled competitions. LMSS fees do not include a Laser sailboat (fall sailing option), personal equipment, competition fees, nor additional school athletic fees.
Competition
Sailors will practice during the week with the option to participate in the local Conference series on Saturdays (420s) along with our team race (spring) series. Additional travel regattas may become available based on experience and skill.
