Entries are now open for the first ‘Activate Your Laser 2010 Fleet Award for Innovation’. Anyone who has taken part in an ‘Activate’ workshop (Activators) and their fellow club members could be in with the chance to win a day with Activate Ambassador Paul Goodison.
 
All the ‘Activators’ need to do is to complete the following easy steps:

• Create a short report on the most innovative method used to get Lasers back in the water at their sailing club, including photographs and quotes from those involved.
• Email the report, photographs and a short outline of what they would like Paul to do at their club to Activate@LaserPerformace.com . For example you may want Paul share some top tips on how to get ahead on a race course or have a master class on sailing up and downwind in your Laser.

Finally, Activators are encouraged to post a summary of their report on the Activate Your Laser Fleet Facebook page with some images of the activities going on at their clubs, that way other clubs and Activators can see just whatever one else is getting up to and share your great ideas and success stories.
 
The ‘Activator’ and club members who showcase the most innovating plans will win a day with Skandia Team GBR’s Paul Goodison who currently holds the Olympic, World and European titles.
 
The ‘Activate Your Laser Fleet’ programme aims to increase adult participation in sailing by reinvigorating activity in the number of under used Laser fleets across the country.
 
The closing date for entries is 30 June 2010.
