About Us

The 2011 Bruin EDHEC Team is comprised of current undergrads and recent alumni of the UCLA Sailing Team. The UCLA Sailing Team is a small group of active, dedicated, and passionate students who compete in the Intercollegiate Sailing Association on 14ft Flying Juniors and continuously qualify for the Pacific Coast Championship. The team is a club sport; although we come from one of the world’s best public institutions, we do not receive enough funding to exist without member dues and personal donations. Practices are held two to three times per week at the Marina Aquatic Center in Marina del Rey.

This website highlights our participation in the Course Croisière EDHEC (CCE) - the largest student run sporting competition in Europe. The CCE is an annual event organized entirely by students of the EDHEC Business School in Lille, France. The week-long regatta takes place each Spring in the chilly French Atlantic waters.

Feb 27 Practice

In preparation for the 42nd Course Croisiere Edhec, the UCLA Edhec Team is crewing at local yacht clubs.  Members of the Dana Point Yacht Club have been extremely welcoming in inviting us to sail with them.

This past weekend, Eric, Jake, Richard, and Victor were aboard a Henderson 30.  They were supposed to participate in DPYC's Series #2 Regatta, but the weather and tsunami warning cancelled the race.  In any case, they were able to sail for about an hour in the very choppy and windy Pacific with some great sailors.  A big thank you to Bryant and Bif!

If you're interested in having members of the UCLA Sailing Team crew for you, please contact us! uclasailing(at)gmail.com or sailing(at)ucla.edu
