3 Foreword The RYA Cymru Wales is the Royal Yachting Association s (RYA) council for Wales and is committed to developing the best young racing sailors in the UK and feed the British Sailing Team. The RYA Cymru Wales has appointed a Performance Sub Committee (PSC) which will oversee the work of the High Performance Manager (HPM) and ratify the squad nominations put forward by the selection committee. Discretion may be exercised in exceptional circumstances to include or exclude sailors from squads, however by setting out a clear and straightforward selection policy the RYA Cymru Wales intent is that all sailors can identify their target events and work towards attaining the best possible results in them. Introduction Selection for the RYA Cymru Wales squads will be determined by the Selectors appointed by the Performance Sub Committee. Their aim is to select the sailors, who in their opinion, have the best prospects of progressing to RYA youth and junior squads and winning medals for Wales and Great Britain in the future. A high proportion of the Welsh National Squad places will be allocated to sailors on the basis of their national ranking in the indicator series and class ranking. Some places may also be awarded on a discretionary basis. Eligibility To be eligible for selection to any of the squads referred to in this policy a sailor should meet the age criteria in the matrix below and be eligible to compete for Great Britain in the ISAF Youth World Championship. (Youth World Championship eligibility criteria can be found at In addition, their primary place of residence and their primary sailing club must be situated in Wales. In exceptional circumstances, non-residents of Wales may elect to apply for a Welsh Squad place. They will be considered for inclusion using the following criteria:- 1. Existing or previous membership of a Welsh squad. 2. The sailors crew or helm meets the above criteria (Double-handed youth classes only). If a sailor has previously been a member of another zone or home country and has moved primary residence and primary sailing club, they will need approval from both the High Performance Manager (HPM) of the zone they have moved from and also the Welsh HPM before they are considered for selection into a Welsh squad. Without this approval, a sailor cannot be a member of a Welsh squad after being a member of another zone or home country squad. Applications will be checked by the Welsh HPM to ensure the eligibility criteria are met before being put to the Selection Committee. 3
4 RYA Cymru Wales selectors may recommend to the PSC that older sailors are involved in Welsh squad training. Sailors falling into this category are encouraged to apply and could be eligible for discretionary places. To ensure a balanced gender mix within the squads, the RYA Cymru Wales selectors may recommend to the PSC that they invite sailors falling outside of the normal selection criteria to ensure a minimum number, or either gender, usually not less than 30%, are included within the programme. Sailors may be invited to attend one or more squad sessions on a trial basis if the selectors are not certain that a sailor will meet a required level of ability. This option may normally be considered for sailors significantly below age or in transition from a different class. A sailor cannot usually be a member of more than one Welsh squad. However, in circumstances where a sailor is considering transition between classes, they may make a request to the High Performance Manager to be allowed to train alongside another squad. Target Squad Sizes and Ages 2015/16 Squad sizes will vary depending upon the strength and depth of talent in each particular class. However approximate indicative numbers are shown in the tables below. Ages in the tables below are as at 31 st December Welsh National Squads Profile Optimist Topper Laser 4.7 Feva Youth Squads Academy and Post Youth Support U14* U14* U15* U15* U19* U21* Boats Boats 6-8 Boats 6-8 Boats Varies by class to a max of approx. 10 Very few Optimist Regional Squad Profile 2015 / 2016 Profile* Target Squad Size* South & West Optimist Under 13 4 Sailors South & West Optimist Under 12 8 Sailors North Optimist Under 13 4 Sailors North Optimist Under 12 6 Sailors 4

In exceptional circumstances, the selectors may consider applicants outside this age range. Sailors who have gained places in RYA youth and junior squads (no matter what age) will automatically qualify for a place in the Welsh National Sailing Squad. Discretionary places will be determined by the Selection Committee and may be offered to sailors who: Fall outside the age criteria Due to exceptional circumstances fail to achieve automatic selection Any other reason the Welsh High Performance Manager and the Head Coach feel are appropriate. 5
