HKLCA RANKING:
All sailors wishing to take part in the 2026 HKLCA Year Ranking require 2026 HKLCA Membership. HKLCA annual membership runs on a September to August calendar. If you have not registered for membership and paid by the first day of a regatta you will receive a DNC score for that regatta and any further regattas until membership is paid and confirmed. Only members of HKLCA are entitled to represent Hong Kong during the ILCA events and/or compete for the Hong Kong Sailor of the Year Award. HKLCA uses the Ranking to select sailors for overseas ILCA events.
The ranking file on the HKLCA website will only show sailors who are members of HKLCA.
HKLCA Year 2026 Overall Hong Kong ILCA Ranking System
The HKLCA overall ranking for 2026 runs from September 2026 to August 2027. The ranking system is run on the basis of adding sailors placings in every race of the ranking regattas for that particular year. For 2026, the best results from 3 out of 5 regattas were applied. The World Sailing High Point System is applied in scoring. If a tie-breaker is required, the Nationals result is used.
