Request Details | 1. Can a Sailor whose MNA is not Australia sail in the 2020 Optimist National TR Championship 2. Can that same sailor enter as a Competitor or Team member of any Australian State Team? |
Reply Details | 1. Yes 2. Yes but the team will not be eligible to win the National title. The World Sailing Appendix 3 Eligibility Code 19.12 (a and b) states that a competitor must be resident of an MNA for 3 consecutive years and a member for 3 consecutive years of the club or other organisation, before the sailor can apply for an exemption to the Executive Committee for an exemption to the eligibility rules in 19.12.
