The PCISA Board met again on Tuesday evening, March 23rd. It is noted that things are moving in a very positive direction but that State and County Guidance has not yet moved to a place that allows High School Sailing Events that involve multiple teams and participants from numerous Counties. Several schools, districts, and athletic departments have confirmed their expectation for firm compliance with these guidelines for High School Sailing Teams.
As numerous Counties are moving through the Tiers expeditiously, CIF is advising that they are hopeful for new State Guidelines for High School Sports Events by or before April 13th (See Attached CIF Update). Thus PCISA has confirmed that the Team Race PCC’s will be held on April 24-25 at Newport Harbor Yacht Club and that there will not be a PCISA event on April 10-11.
The PCISA Board and the hosts are currently grappling with the difficulties of potential last-minute developments for the events currently scheduled for April 17-18. We will issue new guidance on these events by April 3rd.
We are feeling optimistic about events from April 24-25 forward and are thus working on how best to use those remaining scheduled dates.
PLEASE SEE THE UPDATED PCISA SPRING CALENDAR DATED 3-24-21 for some further insight.
As has been necessary for now over a year, we continue to ask for your patience and understanding as we continue to do everything possible to host High School Sailing Events this Spring in accordance with the guidance and regulations as well as in the spirit of not contributing to negative impacts to the spread or continuance of the pandemic. We’re almost there! Please work to get your teams organized and out on the water practicing.
Look for more updates by April 3, 2021.
