Fiji will be represented by five local teams in the South Pacific Youth Hobie Challenge
THE Fiji Hobie Class Racing Association will use this month's South Pacific Youth Hobie Challenge as part of its development program for local sailors to represent Fiji to future regional and international competitions.
The build-up starts with the inaugural South Pacific Hobie Youth Challenge in Suva on July 24-25.
Five local youth teams are currently being trained to represent the country in this competition.
The teams consist of youths from settlements in Jittu Estate in Raiwaqa and Kalekana in Lami.
The association says the teams are being groomed for top level competition and the 2011 Pacific Games.
The teams will compete against other Pacific island countries.
The Fiji Sailing Association intends to make the youth challenge an annual event and to be attended by most South Pacific countries.
Following the youth challenge will be the Air Pacific South Pacific Championships.
A training program will also be organised during the youth challenge whereby experienced sailors like Graham Southwick will share their knowledge of the sport.

South Pacific Championships and Suzuki Fiji Hobie Challenge
Hobie Fleet 252, Fiji has now extended their South Pacific Championships and Suzuki Fiji Hobie Challenge to now include South Pacific Hobie Youth Challenge and 2010 Worlds Training. New for 2010 is an inaugural annual Youth Team Challenge in Fiji on July 24 and 25, upon request by some South Pacific countries.
The event will be preceded and followed by three days of afternoon training sessions with some pretty impressive sailors, Grahame Southwick and Aaron Worrall amongst others, who will be here for Worlds training immediately prior to our events (mornings are reserved for school work) - how lucky are these kids!
Hobie Fleet 252 is planning to make this an annual event that coincides with Australasian school holidays going forward so we look forward to welcoming some Australian youth teams here in the very near future.
