Some of the world's best young sailors will land in Plymouth next month for the prestigious
World Cadet Championships. The event, held by The UK Cadet Class Association, will bring
together 200 sailors between the ages of seven and 17.

In total, 100 teams will take to Plymouth Sound between July 27 and August 9, for the chance
of being crowned World Cadet champion. Held at the Mount Batten Watersports and Activities
Centre and hosted by Plymouth Youth Sailing Club, the competition will bring together teams
from as far afield as Australia and Argentina all competing for their individual nations.

This year will also be the first in two decades that a team from India will compete. Youngsters
will take part in a series of intense races across the week against the stunning backdrop of
Plymouth Hoe and the Barbican as well as enjoying all the city has to offer with a range of activities
including local beach clean ups, a trip to the National Marine Aquarium and for the accompanying
adults, a Plymouth Gin Tasting experience.
