CSSC Dinghy Championships 2021 The 2021 National Dinghy Championships was hosted by Littleton Sailing Club, a Division of the Civil Service Sailing Association. The Championship was open to all CSSA members across the UK, Armed Forces Sailing Associations and Littleton members and financially supported by the Civil Service Sports Council (CSSC). Unfortunately a late change in National Covid restrictions Nicholas and Rebecca, RS200, after six races discouraged a number of CSSA teams who were tie with two others for 3rd place overall considering travel and overnight accommodation for the championship. Twenty dinghies competed for the minimum of six races over two days. This year the two-day event included a Rookie Fleet for novice racers along side the Championship fleet, but with a five minute delayed start. The Championship meal on Saturday, was held outside under Covid compliant cover accompanied by live music, a quiz and an extensive range of desserts! On Sunday, three more races and Wendy Eley, CSSC Operations Director presented Awards, Trophies and certificates.
