Big congratulations to our 2022 FIS Sailing team led by Team Captain Bertille and Vice Captain Tomoe. 25 sailors from 7 years old to 17 years old from both the French and International section across the 3 campuses joined the 24 Hour Charity Race at the H**e Haven Yacht Club. FIS registered 2 teams in RS Feva and Pico. Their aim was to secure large amount of donations as well as a Podium. After a battle against HKA, RCHK, adults teams, the RHKYC Sharks and the H**e Dragons, FIS Sailing team managed to collect an impressive amount of over HKD 18,000 and not 1 but 4 podiums :
3rd in Feva division
1st in Pico division
and 1st and 2nd position in School team division with FIS winning the Inter-school division for the 3rd year in a row!
The results will be confirmed at the cheque presentation in a month time. Stay tuned !
A big thanks to all the sailors, Bertille and Tomoe, all the parents who supported the team including at night and early in the morning and The French International School (FIS).

FIS registered 2 teams in RS Feva and Pico. The pressure was high amongst all the sailors. Their aim was to secure large amount of donations as well as a Podium. After a fierce battle against HKA, HKIS, adults teams, the RHKYC and the H**e Dragons, FIS Sailing team managed to collect an impressive amount of HKD 38,000 and not 1 but 3 podiums :

3rd in Feva division (with only a mere 1.10 mns behind the second team after 24 hours !
2nd in Pico division

FIS Sailing Racing Team is back in action with this year 24hours race on Oct 30/31st at H**e Haven Yacht Club.

We are in the process of preparing the registration. FIS Sailing will once again enter the event with two or more boats if we have enough sailors.

We will need a maximum of 48 sailors (FIS students only from 8 years old to 18 years old, French or International section), no prior sailing experience is needed (but it is recommended as it is a race), 2 per boats for 2 hours but anyone can double the shifts, sail alone on the Pico etc.... providing there is space for everyone.

Sailors can register many time for the same team (unless we have 48 sailors in which case there will be one slot only). Parents can sail too but priority to the students.

For more information: https://www.hebehaven24hour.com/about with a nice video of FIS Sailing Team.

Currently we are the best overall school and at the last edition in 2019 FIS did:
- 1st place Interschools Division (Feva)
- 3rd place Interschools Division (Pico)
- 1st place Pico Division
- 2nd place Feva Division

Entries for the FIS students will be opened as soon as possible with the FIS Sailing team leader directly.

Please share this post to all potential FIS sailors/students who would like to enter the event.

***IMPORTANT REGARDING THE INTERSCHOOL SAILING FESTIVAL***

Dear all,

Following the HKSAR Government’s raising of the Response Level to Emergency status with regards to the novel corona virus infection, the LCSD has cancelled all of their major events and has urged community groups to take public health risks into account when organsing any large scale event.

With the 2020 Interschool Sailing Festival falling into this category the Royal Kong Yacht Club therefore took the decision to postpone the 2020 BCC Interschool Sailing Festival.

Please stay tuned for more information,

The FIS Team Leaders
