CHARLESTOWN, NEVIS – The St. Kitts and Nevis Sailing Association (SKNSA), in collaboration with the St. Kitts Yacht Club and the Nevis Aquatic and Sailing Centre, is pleased to announce that Coach Nickhail Rogers and sailor Elijah Walters will represent St. Kitts and Nevis at the World Sailing Inclusive Development Programme Clinic and Regatta.
The event will be held at the National Sailing Academy in English Harbour, Antigua and Barbuda, from June 21 to 27, 2026.
The pair departed Nevis on Sunday, June 21, to join sailors and coaches from across the Caribbean for a week of training, education, and racing.
The programme, launched by World Sailing in partnership with the National Sailing Academy of Antigua and Barbuda, aims to increase participation in sailing while creating meaningful development pathways for both sailors and coaches.
Participation in this programme marks an important step in SKNSA’s efforts to expand opportunities for inclusive sailing in St. Kitts and Nevis.
By providing access to specialized training, coaching, and competition, the programme helps open doors for more individuals to experience and excel in the sport, regardless of ability.
The knowledge and experience gained by both the coach and sailor will help strengthen local programmes and support the continued development of a more accessible and inclusive sailing community.
SKNSA is delighted to see St. Kitts and Nevis represented in this groundbreaking initiative and looks forward to building on the momentum generated by this opportunity.
The Association remains committed to ensuring that sailing is a sport that welcomes everyone and provides opportunities for all to participate, develop, and succeed.
