The 2000 Class is pleased to be able to publish events for 2022, and thank all of the clubs involved for helping put together a range of events for our sailors.

Following a shortened season in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic, we hope 2022 has something for everyone, and we can get back to a full series of events.

The season includes:

• Training and coaching at two events.
• Millennium Series consisting of seven events, with title sponsorship from West Country Boat Repairs. It is great news that our 2021 sponsor is returning for 2022.
• National Championship at Castle Cove over a full week in the summer.
• Inland Championship at Weir Wood SC.
• Euro holiday event at Carnac YC, France.
• Welsh Championship at Cardiff Bay YC.
