CYA COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
ASSISTANT RACE OFFICER
The Assistant Race Officer is the entry level for
Race Management and is meant for anyone who wishes
to learn to “ assist in running a local sailing race
event”. The clinic is open to volunteers, parents,
instructors, sailors and anyone else who wishes to
learn more about organizing and running a sailing race.
Topics covered are assisting in timing, recording,
flag operation, sound signaller, line judge, mark setting,
practical exercises and will also touch on other subjects
of Race Management. Participants attend to either hone
their skills or learn the basics of Race Management
so that they could assist in running races.
CLUB RACE OFFICER
A Club Race Officer, the Level II in Race Management,
is capable of managing the ‘on-the-water' operations
of regattas at the club and provincial levels. The
three prerequisites to attain the CRO certification
are: a minimum two year service as an Assistant Race
Officer, successful completion of the CYA Club Race
Officer Management clinic given by a certified CYA
Course Conductor and evidence of mark laying capability.
The Club Race Officer course includes topics covering
timing, recording, flag operation, sound signaller,
line judge, practical exercises plus mark set management,
course and start line setting and overall Race Officer
responsibilities during a race. There is a
thought provoking questionnaire to complete the course.
This course also includes the cost of a CYA Race Management
Manual.
