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.

Update from LAX!

So we've made it through security and are waiting at the gate with a new departure time of 6pm. Hopefully mother nature will cooperate, but everything really depends on the weather and which way the wind blows (har har har. Sailing joke kind of?)

Anyway, we're all hoping that the plane will at least take off and that the skies will clear by the time we land tomorrow...if not, we figure they'll have to put the plane down somewhere...preferably somewhere warm and exotic with all expenses paid :)

More updates soon..hopefully from Paris!!
