COVID19 outbreak - 420 Executive Committee's announcement
Dear 420 Class members and friends,
Following the outbreak of COVID-19, the International 420 Class Association has been monitoring the current global health situation as well as guidance from World Sailing and the governments of our host countries.
The Class is in regular contact with the Organising Authorities of both the 2020 World Championships to be held in Crozon Morgat, France from 3-11 July 2020 and the Junior Europeans to be held in Golfo di Gaeta, Italy from 25 July – 1 August 2020.
The International 420 Class Association and the organizing authorities for our 2020 championships are fully committed to these events but clearly the health and well-being of the sailors, support personnel, officials and volunteers, is a top priority for the Class.
It is our intention that a final decision regarding the postponement or cancellation of these events will be made by the middle of April 2020. We appreciate your patience as we continue to monitor the situation but if anyone has any specific queries please contact us on office@420sailing.org
Further information will be posted on the website at www.420sailing.org as soon as a decision is made.
Executive Committee
International 420 Class Association
