Strathclyde have four team racing teams. Trainings run all Saturdays at Fannyside Loch in Cumbernauld. All teams compete in three Scottish Student Sailing qualifying leagues throughout the year. These culminate in the top qualifying for the BUCS team racing finals at the end of the year. We also participate in open competitions throughout the year, so there's plenty of opportunity to get stuck in!
Team racing is a fast-paced tactical game in which two teams of 3 boats race around a course; the winner being the team with the lowest combined finishing positions. The course is short with lots of corners to give maximum opportunity for overtakes, and the whole race usually only lasts about 5 or 10 minutes.

Strathclyde competes in several match racing competitions every year.
While our main focus is the BUSA Match Racing Championships, we also compete in the Ceilidh Cup at the RNCYC near the start of the academic year, as well as any other open competitions we can!

Rounding out the academic year annually is the BUSA Yachting Championship held in Beneteau First 40s. We send as many teams as we are able to this lively week on the South Coast. Sun, sea and socials await, amidst the avid racing!
We also compete at the SSS Yachting Championship on 7o7s at Port Edgar and other 7o7's events in Scotland.
