This year the Royal Yachting Association Ladies National Championships took place from the 21st to the 23rd of February at West Kirby Sailing Club, in the United Kingdom. We are extremely proud of our D.U.S.C Ladies team who competed at the event.
Unfortunately, foul weather prevented much of the racing taking place. Nevertheless, the BUSA Women’s event constitutes an integral part of the Women in Sport 20x20 campaign. While there is much to celebrate in women’s sport already, there isn’t enough noise made about it. Trinity Sport, and indeed D.U.S.C., is trying to increase participation, media coverage and attendance of women’s sporting events. This event has been one small step we have taken in supporting our fantastic sporting women here at D.U.S.C. and the whole 20x20 campaign.
We would like to extend a particular word of thanks to Trinity College Trust, who generously covered the travel costs of the competitors, and for their ongoing support of Trinity Sailing.
The TCD Association & Trust provides grant support for a wide variety of College projects where funding is not available from mainstream resources. If you would like to learn more about the TCD trust card opportunities please follow the link https://www.tcd.ie/alumni/services/affinity-credit-card/
