Race officials are reminded that there is a wealth of wonderful resources on the Australian Sailing website.

The information on the Australian Sailing website is available to umpires, judges, measurers and race officers. Each discipline of race official has its own library of resources containing everything from practical advice for measuring sails and spars, through to course setting cards and mark laying manuals.

Race officials will also find regatta document templates. In this section there are twenty templates for the race, protest and technical committees to use. All of the templates are provided in Word format so that the user can easily modify and use the form.

We suggest that all race officials familiarise themselves with the resources available to them. The resources should help make the job easier and more efficient and importantly give competitors a consistent and professional experience across events.

Resources for race officials can be found at https://www.sailingresources.org.au/officials-volunteers/nop-resources/&quicklink=true/.
